Integrated Control Technology (ICT), award-winning global manufacturer of intelligent electronic access control and security solutions, announced they have extended their presence in the Middle East and Africa (MEA) region by entering a distribution agreement with Ingram Micro.
Developing a Strong Presence in the Region
Over a year ago, ICT started developing their presence in the Middle East and Africa region with the opening of a Dubai office, and the appointment of two senior sales directors, Gaurav Mahajan, in Dubai, and Justin Colin, in South Africa. After starting collaboration with Ingram Micro, this agreement is a milestone as it creates a strong relationship with one of the region’s leading value-added security distributors.
The distribution agreement entitles Ingram Micro to resell the ICT Protege range of products and solutions across the MEA region. This includes ICT single and multi-site controllers, door and input/output expanders, as well as multi-technology readers, and both physical and mobile credentials. It also offers a comprehensive software suite, featuring reporting, data synchronisation, and integration capabilities with third-party security systems.
