Westcoast signs distribution agreement with Avast Business to grow Channel portfolio in the UK
3rd February 2021
Avast Business has signed a new distribution agreement with Westcoast to distribute its full portfolio of on-premise professional antivirus software. The deal, signed in January 2021, is the largest regional distribution contract in Avast’s history.
Alex Tatham, Managing Director at Westcoast, said: “Cybersecurity is the number one issue on the desk of every CIO in the UK – that’s every business including all those serviced by Westcoast’s army of partners. Our partnership with Avast will enhance our security offering and provide a new line of business to our already outstanding software capability. We have no competing offering and hence will put all of Westcoast’s considerable energy and enthusiasm behind this new relationship; helping Avast Business consolidate its channel and allowing our reseller customers to offer the very best products in the market. I couldn’t be more delighted.”
