Kolok , a proudly Bidvest company has been appointed HP Supplier Distributor of the Year 2014, an important milestone and indicative of the distributor’s strong and growing market share in a challenging SA technology environment.

The distributor received the accolade at HP’s annual Channel Awards which recognises and honours the achievements of its partners across the region. The awards ceremony was held last week at HP’s head office in Rivonia, Johannesburg and attended by its channel partners from across the country.

Says Lorraine Nauschutz, HP division manager of Kolok: “We are incredibly proud to be appointed HP Supplier Distributor of the Year. It is testament to our strong relationship with HP which has over the years gone from strength to strength.

“Our HP team here at Kolok are incredibly dedicated and through this accolade they are undoubtedly awarded for their expertise and consistent hard work. The team from HP has also made our work so much easier; we’d like to extend our thanks to ongoing support and belief in us. Furthermore, Kolok would not have achieved this success if it wasn’t for our loyal customers.”

In order to be appointed HP Supplier Distributor of the Year Kolok had to meet a number of criteria such as: overall market share; turnover achieved, ordering processes, stock rotation; and marketing support.
