Smart Axess expands with new regional office.
Johannesburg, January 2012: Smart Axess Solutions, Africa’s only Citrix Platinum Solutions Provider, has announced expansion in the South African market with the opening of an office in Durban.
The Smart Axess Durban office will be headed up by local IT entrepreneur Raj Harie. Harie has extensive local knowledge and international experience gained in 1999 - 2001. He is excited by the future prospects: ‘Smart Axess is swiftly gaining a great reputation in the Citrix and virtualisation space,’ he comments. ‘We feel confident that we can grow the business organically in the KZN region, following on from our success in the Cape.’
Smart Axess CEO, Alex Russell, comments, ‘The decision to open a Durban office is a logical one when we considered how much the local market for Citrix products and virtualisation solutions is maturing. Our recent growth nationally, and especially in our branch office in Cape Town, makes the step a positive one for us. We’re confident that Raj will lead organic market growth in the region for Smart Axess.’
Simon McCullough of Citrix is equally positive about Smart Axess’ expansion nationally: ‘What has made Smart Axess one of our most successful and fastest-growing partners is a true entrepreneurial spirit. They are not waiting for a vendor lead to create demand; they are going into a new market with an appetite for calculated risk that will stand them in good stead.’
‘We already have a strong foothold with prestigious clients in the agribusiness and automotive sectors in the region,’ concludes Russell. ‘We’re confident that organic growth and the short to medium term prospects are going to be good.’
The Smart Axess Durban office is situated at G83 Gateway 1 Palm Boulevard Umhlanga Ridge New Town Centre, Kwazulu Natal and can be contacted at 031 100 1027.
