Cohort mixes with MXI

Distributor set to help USB security vendor grow its UK market share

Grahame Smee: This is a key vendor signing for Cohort

VAD Cohort Technology has added to its vendor stable by becoming the exclusive distribution partner for MXI Security.

The vendor, which was recently awarded CESG Assisted Products Service Certification (CAPS) approval for its USB and biometric USB drives, is looking to increase its UK footprint through the partnership.

Simon Roe, territory manager UK and Ireland at MXI Security, said: “We are pleased to have partnered with Cohort Technology and together we will be able to reach out to even more customers and provide them with added-value solutions and services.

“We have been in discussion for some time and the timing is now perfect as we look to further our sales efforts on the back of our recent CAPS approval. Cohort has a history of working well with niche vendors and particularly in the government space, we are looking forward to working with their partners.”

Grahame Smee, managing director of Cohort, said: “This is a key vendor signing for us as we add to our already comprehensive portfolio of brands. We will work closely with MXI to give them the increase in sales they seek while maintaining our position of offering leading value added services and support.”
