Ingram Micro and SquareTrade Collaborate to Improve Service for Millions of Smartphone Customers

SANTA ANA, CA — (Marketwired) — 08/12/13 — (NYSE: IM), the world-s largest wholesale technology distributor and a global leader in IT supply-chain, mobile device lifecycle services and logistics solutions, today announced a multi-year agreement with SquareTrade, the number-one-rated mobile device protection plan, trusted by millions of customers. Ingram Micro Mobility will provide all mobile device lifecycle services and back-end supply chain operations for SquareTrade, creating unrivaled reliability and consistency across its operations. Through this collaboration, SquareTrade expects to double the volume of protection plans by the end of the 2013 year, adding smartphone protection for 1 million new customers over the next five months.

“SquareTrade-s award-winning customer service experience is built on reliability, transparency and trust. We make this a reality every day through the people we hire, the values we espouse and the companies with which we partner,” said Steve Abernethy, president and CEO of SquareTrade. “Ingram Micro Mobility enhances the crucial back-end of our customer experience, enabling us to provide unparalleled service, which is what our customers expect from us.
