ScanSource Europe named Intermec 2011 Distributor of the Year

For the second year running, ScanSource Europe, the international value-added distributor of Auto ID and point-of-sale solutions and services, has been voted Intermec's Distributor of the Year for the EMEA region by Intermec's PartnerNet reseller community. ScanSource was recognised during the manufacturer's EMEA Partner Summit in Athens.

"We are honoured to receive recognition once again from Intermec and its community of resellers for our work throughout 2011," said Bert Fonderie, Vice President Merchandising, ScanSource Europe. "It's extremely important for us to form genuine partnerships with the resellers and manufacturers we work with and this award is evidence that our approach is valued in the channel. We work very closely with Intermec to bring resellers the product and business solutions they need to better serve their own customers and we look forward to further enhancing that during 2012."

"ScanSource delivered operational excellence in 2010 and deservedly won this award last year. Their exceptional performance continued into 2011 and we are proud to once again recognise their achievements," said Ian Snadden, Vice President EMEA, Intermec. "ScanSource continues to come to us with ideas, campaigns and tools that really add value to the channel and we look forward to another positive year as a partner with ScanSource Europe."

During 2011, ScanSource Europe and Intermec together launched the Big 5, a reseller growth and incentive campaign that showcases Intermec's product solutions and ScanSource's wide range of value-added services. Participating resellers become acquainted with the entire offering of the ScanSource-Intermec portfolio and are encouraged to incorporate all the tools at their disposal into their daily tasks, utilising it as a platform on which to grow their business.
