To this end, she said 17 years down the line, TD has positively impacted technology distribution ecosystem in the region not minding the economic challenges

"As the first manufacturer-accredited local distributor for the sub-region, TD, with the support of the OEMs, successfully confronted the myriad challenges posed by the hitherto unstructured market.

"Among the first measures was the formulation of a clear policy on the channel of distribution that led to the adoption of the prevailing four-tier market structure comprising Manufacturer (OEM), Distributor, Reseller and End-User.

"This development, coupled with TD's high stocking capability, brought relief to all stakeholders by ending decades of problematic reliance on foreign distributors with no local value add," she reemphasised.

She added that they are also taking cognisance of cyber threats to businesses with online presence, adding that experts have been engaged to ensure TD's seamless engagements with partners.
