The strategic alliance expands Ingram Micro’s hospitality and retail point-of-sale (POS) solutions. The two companies earlier signed a similar agreement covering Australia and New Zealand.
As part of the North American distribution agreement, Ingram Micro’s data capture/POS division will sell, support and integrate NCR’s product portfolio for retail and hospitality resellers, including NCR RealPOS POS terminals, NCR EasyPoint self-service kiosk solutions, NCR RealScan bar-code scanners, POS peripherals, including NCR’s innovative two-sided receipt printing technology, and NCR POS software solutions.
Dale Grant, vice president, Americas, for NCR retail and hospitality solutions, said: Hospitality and retail represent two major market opportunities for selling and servicing POS and self-service solutions.
By teaming with Ingram Micro’s data capture/POS division, we are able to quickly and efficiently extend our reach into additional vertical markets, as well as achieve further penetration in retail and hospitality. With access to thousands of strong solution provider partners in North America, Ingram Micro represents a unique, incremental business opportunity that will strengthen our ability to reach SMB customers.
