GEC NEWS WIRESonicWall has re-entered the Pakistan market once again with a distribution tie-up with LinkQuest.

While expressing his delight on re-entering the Pakistan market, the Sales and Channel Director for SonicWall (META & CEE), Shahnawaz Sheikh said, “Pakistan has always been a key market for us, but unfortunately during our acquisition period with Dell, we had to realign certain territories and had to let Pakistan go to APAC region. Now, as we emerge out of Dell merger, we took a conscious decision to bring Pakistan back to Middle East region and support it from Dubai.”
Excited about the new possibilities and with the tie-up with SonicWall, the CEO for LinkQuest, Mash Khan said “Late last year, we were delighted upon learning of SonicWall’s return to its original status of an independent company. Having been associated with them originally as their Outsourced Middle East Regional office, we are excited about the prospect of working with SonicWall and Shahnawaz Sheikh again.”
Khan said, “We will be focusing on Pakistan that is a fertile territory for selling SonicWall’s technologies and we look forward to making our contribution in assisting SonicWall to regain its old pre-eminence in the marketplace.”
Echoing the similar sentiments, Sheikh further added that with this partnership in place, we are confident to fill the vacuum that the channel in Pakistan must have felt in past couple of years. “SonicWall with 26 years in-depth experience in developing products powered by the most advance technologies offers ease of use and management and not only ensuring a strong value proposition to its customers. And, on other hand being a dedicated channel company we offer a strong business proposition to our partners assuring their profitability and their representation as strong security advisor towards their customers.”
“We are looking forward to regain the lost ground and establish our presence even stronger than ever before. We are well prepared for this come back with a strong plan and investments to match the expectations,” concluded Sheikh.
