In adding them as a value-added distribution partner, Stratasys will have a dedicated 3D printing team for both business development and support services.
This will apply to:
- Stratasys Mojo
- uPrint
- Objet24
- Objet30
“By authorizing WYNIT as a national distributor and leveraging its extensive and focused reseller network, we aim to significantly expand Stratasys’ 3D Printer market share,” says Gilad Gans, President, Stratasys North America. “We see this as an opportunity to extend our reach into new segments that are looking to adopt our leading 3D printer technology and relevant solutions and applications.”
With corporate offices in Syracuse, NY, and distribution centers in both Memphis and Reno, WYNIT was founded in 1987. The company has a long history in distribution for supplies in the following industries:
- Consumer electronics
- Photo
- Wide format printing
- Security
- Outdoor leisure and adventure industries
With a commitment to giving their customers the competitive edge, adding 3D printing to their lineup in retail was obviously a smart move that sends their business as well as all the businesses they supply into the competitive and innovative arena of today that relies on technological savvy and serious forward movement.
WYNIT does not sell to end users, but only their wide range of authorized resellers, consisting of both large national retailers and independent resellers—througout the US and Canada.
“We have an established community of resellers in various markets including the technical (2D) graphics vertical, which we believe has great potential for expanding into the 3D printing category,” said Geoffrey Lewis, Chief Executive Officer and President of WYNIT. “We view Stratasys’ 3D Printers as the market leader in terms of quality and performance for commercial applications. We anticipate that our broad market reach and value-added distribution services will allow us to tap into additional incremental markets.”
Because WYNIT already has a solid, existing network—ongoing for decades now–of customers doing their own business on down the line, the partnership with Stratasys offers a solid way to offer further opportunities to potential resellers, authorizing them to sell 3D printing equipment. Together, the two companies will be able to reach, explore, and give added benefit to markets previously untapped.
