Staples signs strategic partnerships in EMEA

摘要

Staples has entered into partnerships with leading South African office supplies retailer Waltons and Romania-based OP reseller Dacris. The global giant said the partnerships will enable customers with a worldwide presence to extend their global procurement programmes through a single-source solution. The agreement with Waltons is particularly interesting as the South African firm has been - or had been -Lyreco's strategic partner since 2006. Waltons has been undergoing a restructuring process recently as it tries to deal with challenging market conditions.
