“It-s extremely rewarding to be named the top-performing distribution partner in several categories by ChannelPro-SMB readers for the second year in a row,” says Kirk Robinson, senior vice president and general manager, Commercial Markets Division and Global Accounts, Ingram Micro North America. “We-ve made SMB a top priority and these six readers- choice wins speak volumes about the trust that channel partners have in Ingram Micro to help build their businesses, add greater value and achieve true competitive differentiation.”

More than 1,000 VARs, MSPs, systems integrators, custom builders and IT consultants took part in the multiple-choice survey, which was conducted in the first quarter of 2013. For each category, readers selected the option that best satisfied the unique business requirements, work styles and budgets of their small and midsize business clients, as well as those that best serve their own partner organizations.

Both offer in-depth business education and training for SMB VARs in the U.S., as well as credit, marketing, technical and sales support. Ingram Micro-s continued leadership within the SMB channel is reflected in the success of its partners and in particular those noted on the Ingram Micro SMB 500 (), an annual ranking of the distributor-s top 500 SMB-focused channel partners in the U.S.

“Our SMBA community and SMB business unit are proven to enable channel partners to build a better business by encouraging best practices, sharing experiences and providing valuable resources that help them expand their services and grow more profitably,” says Jamie Ferullo, director of sales, SMB, Ingram Micro U.S.
