SkyeTek Signs Resellers to Serve Large RFID Markets in Europe
SkyeTek, Inc., the leading provider of embedded RFID reader
technology, today announced the addition of three value added
resellers that will provide significant sales, systems integration,
and support presence across Europe. TDC, AVE, and IAData will provide
SkyeTek with sales and service support in the United Kingdom/Ireland,
the Benelux, and Nordic countries respectively. These partners each
carry SkyeTek's full line of HF and UHF reader modules and ReaderWare
software.
"The European RFID market has been thriving in business
applications such as transport and logistics, access control, medicine
and supply chain management," stated Rob Balgley, CEO of SkyeTek.
"Now, RFID-enabled devices are set to pervade such applications as
item-level inventory, patron management, contactless payment, and
product authentication. Because our architecture is
frequency-agnostic, systems integrators and value added resellers can
focus and specialize on one common RFID reader platform, which speeds
time-to-market and increases sales efficiency."
TDC, SkyeTek's selected reseller for the United Kingdom and
Ireland, supplies electronic component and module solutions to
manufacturers of telecommunication, machine to machine, automotive and
consumer electronic products. "The addition of SkyeTek sits perfectly
with our wireless portfolio, and our position as the wireless
specialist within the Abacus Group makes this a real win-win
relationship," said Jerry Sandys, managing Director of TDC. "SkyeTek's
revolutionary HF and UHF reader technology offers simple and secure
solutions for the demands of today's RFID market."
SkyeTek has also selected Added Value Electronics (AVE) and IAData
as value added resellers for the Benelux and Nordic countries
respectively. AVE promotes professional niche electronic components
and subassemblies across Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg. The
company's field sales and application engineers provide customers
optimal logistical and technical support. IAData sells RFID readers,
tags and complete systems to companies in Denmark, Finland, Iceland,
Norway and Sweden.
SkyeTek is excited to add these partners to its growing list of
value added resellers. These companies have been selected based on
their ability to help make the process of embedding RFID into
customers' products simple, cost effective, and secure. To learn more
