SES Technologies has announced that its partnership with Samsung for Samsung HDD products has paid dividends. After the exclusive partnership with SES, Samsung HDD market share has soared to 30 per cent in the AKJ quarter with 300k unit shipment, given the fact that the company has re-entered into the Indian market in April last year. This is a dream-cum-true performance for any of the companies in the Indian soil. As per SES, this achievement of Samsung has surpassed Western Digital in the Indian market share and look forward to reducing the gap with Seagate soon. This amazing performance is even special going by the fact that the Samsung HDD business in India had gone from its glory days of 3-4 years ago, to basically zero by the end of 2006. There was a lot of negative sentiment in the market after the exit which SES had to overcome first before the business could be restored to heights greater than even seen before.The close working relationship between SES and Samsung in Korea and the continuous creative efforts of SESβs sales team have been the cornerstones of the remarkable recovery of Samsung hard drive brand and business in India! With the complete range of Samsung internal hard drives being offered by SES today, from the fast-moving and ever-popular sizes like 160 GB and 320 GB, to the amazing 1Tb drives β Samsung is back! SES also distributes the complete notebook range of hard drives of Samsung.With 32% share of the Indian market already captured β SES is now looking forward to growing the share even further and capturing the No. 1 position as the largest selling hard drive brand. Having already achieved No. 2 position in such a short period of time, being No. 1 is certainly not far away.With nearly 16 years of hardcore experience in distribution, SES technologies today is among the top four technology distribution companies in the country with a wide footprint across A, B, C & D class cities.
