(VIAVI) (NASDAQ: VIAV) today announced two Velocity Partner Program Pinnacle Award winners for 2020: Tokyo Denki Sangyo (TDS) in Japan and Butler Technologies in Ireland. The Pinnacle Award recognizes the highest performing channel partner or partners as measured by recent financial performance.
Tokyo Denki Sangyo Co. Ltd (TDS)
Tokyo Denki Sangyo Co. Ltd (TDS), a VIAVI Velocity Elite Partner, distributes industrial machinery and equipment in the fields of measurement, control, analytical instruments, IT communication networks, and package software development. Founded in 1946, TDS is headquartered in Shibuya-ku, Japan, and has 16 branches and 200 engineers deployed across the country to support customers' needs. TDS aims to contribute to society through their ability to implement measurement, control and information technology. TDS's history with VIAVI began in 1997, and the partnership focuses on providing VIAVI cable TV (CATV) and optical products and solutions. Together with VIAVI, they have conducted many training workshops for customers as well as participated in industry events such as the annual Japan Cable Show, resulting in brand awareness, leads creation, sales opportunities and sales wins in Japan.
"Thank you very much for giving us such a wonderful award," said Isao Tamada, President of TDS. "We became an agent for Wavetek in 1997 and have continued to provide CATV products and optical products to this day. It was difficult to sell products in Japan because of the specifications unique to Japan that are not found in other countries. We are very grateful to the VIAVI team in Japan and VIAVI engineers for their product development support so that we can distribute VIAVI products and solutions in the Japanese market. In the future, we would like to continue to expand the market for VIAVI CATV, optical and 5G products and solutions."
"We congratulate Tokyo Denki Sangyo for their trailblazing performance which is a cumulation of five years of continuous year-over-year growth," said Barry Johnson, Vice President of Global Channels, VIAVI. "Their dedication and tenacity has enabled close working relationships with VIAVI and customers alike, to be able to overcome multiple challenges of adapting our solutions to unique Japanese specifications and requirements, and winning over the MSOs to adopt our instruments and system solutions through the various technology evolutions."
