As one of Europe’s largest IT Value Added Reseller/Service Providers, Bechtle is physically represented in 14 different European countries by more than 10.000 employees. Because of our large European presence, the local technical knowledge and competences and collaboration with over 700 distributors all over Europe, we have the highest partner status with all major manufacturers. These partnerships enable Bechtle to offer vendor-neutral, global IT-solutions. As Sonoco was looking for European-wide IT-standards, our sourcing model could reduce Sonoco’s procurement service costs, and IT product catalogue cost at the same time.
