Micro India:Numero Uno Once Again
Though the Ingram Micro-Tech Pacific merger took place over a year and
half ago, it has still not got the official stamp from the governmental
agencies. But this has in no way stopped the company from growing
Ingram Micro has once more monopolized the top slot at the DQ Channels Silver
Club at the numero uno slot. Though it continued its stint at the top, its
growth rate wasn't too good, considering it was a forerunner, and it did not
fare as well when compared to other companies in the Silver Club.
Ingram Micro posted a total turnover of Rs 6,896 crore in 2006-07, of which
12 percent is estimated to have come from its mobility business and therefore
was discounted from the agency revenues considered in this listing. This brought
its agency revenues to rest Rs 6,068 crore.
The merger between Ingram and Tech PacifOnce Again ic, which took place over
two years ago, has still not got the legal nod from the Bangalore court. A case
filed by Samsung claiming that the merger affected the business interests is
also pending in the court. Nonetheless, the company is currently doing business
with Samsung and is operating under the aegis of Ingram Micro.
It is interesting to note that the distribution powerhouse managed to
continue adding brands, which helped it further in value business, rather than
focusing merely on the volume end. This explains its tie-up with companies like
Symbol, Wyse, Adaptec, RedHat, Hitachi Data Systems and Snap Server. Ingram is
seeing good uptake from its storage business and has increasingly started
seeking vendors that have high-end enterprise level products, which are not sold
on the push strategy. The components business subsequently saw sluggish growth
due to this change in focus.
