Redington comes with a proven record of success, and we are confident that together we will expand Quantum’s product reach and increase our local marketshare.”

Adds Jitendra Kulkarni, CEO of Redington India, “We are delighted to sign up with Quantum in India as it provides us a further opportunity to broaden our existing customer base and product offerings while growing our business portfolio. Quantum’s leadership in bringing innovation to backup, recovery and archive solutions is in line with what our customers demand. We certainly look forward to working closely with Quantum and helping it to achieve further success in India.”
