ZHUHAI, China, July 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Pantum, a developer and manufacturer of laser printers and printing solutions, has achieved a year-on-year sales growth rate of more than 800% in the Indian market in Q1 and Q2 of 2019. This follows the implementation of a new product and distribution strategy at the beginning of the year that specifically targets the unique features of the world's second most populous nation and sixth largest economy.

Starting in 2019, Pantum began to streamline the journey of its products to end users, building up an omnichannel ecosystem that integrates online and offline distribution channels. By June, Pantum achieved a comprehensive coverage of 28 states together with more than 50 sub-distributors nationwide, built up national distribution network in India. To increase its presence in India's rapidly expanding e-commerce landscape, Pantum launched on Amazon.com in January 2019, where hundreds of units sold per month. Pantum also launched on India's other major e-commerce platform, Flipkart and Paytm. This omnichannel approach has allowed Pantum to open up a new phase of development in India. Pantum actively participated in government and large-scale project bidding and eventually won the trust of users. Up till now, Pantum has become the choice of many governments and public institutions, and successfully won the bid for the education system in a southern Indian state, supplying thousands of printers to thousands of secondary schools.

Pantum presides over a comprehensive portfolio of laser printers with more than 10 models that can fully meet the needs of different customers, including governments, enterprises, small and home offices, and families. At the end of 2019, around 20 models will be available in India market.

In India market, Pantum is primarily promoting two entry-level products, the single-function P2500 model and the multi-function M6502 model. With their efficient printing speeds of 22 PPM as well as low purchase and usage costs, these models have become the choice of many consumers. As for the mid-range market, Pantum continues to create differentiated products, such as the high-speed, single-function P3500 model and the high-speed, multi-function M7102 model, both of which boast printing speeds of 33 PPM and copying speeds of 24 PPM on M7102DN. Moreover, one-click installation and mobile printing from a smartphone app opens up an even more efficient and practical printing experience.

On the distribution front, Pantum has teamed up with distribution giant Supertron Who is the top 4 IT distributor in India as its national distributor and leading global IT and service supplier Wipro as its nationwide customer service representative to provide user-friendly on-site services.

"With positive results that have exceeded our targets, Pantum will continue to improve and optimize our product offering, after-sales service, and distribution so that we can keep providing more cost-effective options to our customers in India."
