The new range extends CCI's existing partnership with Hitachi GST

Storage and multimedia distributor CCI Distribution has added Hitachi Global Storage Technologies' (Hitachi GST's) range of portable and desktop external hard drives to its UK portfolio.

Harrogate-based CCI already distributes Hitachi GST’s range of mobile, desktop and enterprise internal hard drives.

The partnership kicked off this month and Nick Preston, sales director at CCI, said: “We are delighted that Hitachi GST has selected us as a UK distributor for its external storage products, further extending our product portfolio for resellers.

“The next step will be to ensure that our partner base is brought quickly up to speed on the Hitachi external storage family, so that in June we can hit the ground running and reward Hitachi’s commitment to us with immediate results.”

The distributor now offers more than 1,000 products from vendors such as LG, Hitachi and HP.

Stephen Pereira, vice president of EMEA at Hitachi GST, said: “Our relationship with CCI has been successful. We look forward to enhancing CCI’s market reach and expertise to help us make further inroads into the UK external storage market.

“CCI’s continued commitment to customer service, and its ability to go above and beyond the norm to ensure that our brand values are upheld, will help us as we grow our branded business in the UK.”
