Zonal to give UK channel the Sigma Touch

EPoS vendor to launch subsidiary in UK space, headed by industry veteran Tim Van den Branden

EPoS channel veteran Tim Van den Branden is to launch new player Sigma Touch Solutions in the UK market at the end of this month.

Sigma is a division of Zonal Retail Data Systems and will sell products from the Edinburgh-based manufacturer through the channel. Sigma is looking to work with resellers operating in the hospitality and retail sectors. Unlike Zonal, it will focus purely on hardware-only packages.

Heading up Sigma is Van den Branden, who served as managing director of rival EPoS manufacturer Partner Tech UK from its foundation in 2008 until last month.

"The established reseller network gives us a high-quality, efficient route to a new sector of the market where we know end users value the services of their local reseller," he said.

"At the same time, our reseller partners will have access to a new range of proven products that have been developed to address real end-user requirements and are being used in some of the most successful businesses in the world."
