Lease Telecom specialise in finance and leasing
Finance and leasing solution specialists Lease Telecom has appointed distributor Eurostar Global as its official UK partner.
The partnership will begin in October, with Lease Telecom financing around £3 million each month through its partners, distributors and mobile carriers.
Lease Telecom were founded in 2014 and has around 400 partners in the UK as of April earlier this year, with plans to reach 500 by the end of 2019.
Lease Telecom co-founder Simon Fabb has welcomed the partnership: “We are delighted to be supporting the team at Eurostar Global and look forward to adding value to their already compelling market offering.
“In partnership with Eurostar Global, we look forward to helping resellers close more business through better supply, better rates and better service.”
Eurostar Global turned over in excess of £89 million last year and operate as a hardware distributor in the UK and act as the UK distributor for Avenir Telecom’s Energizer smartphone range.
Eurostar Global managing director Peter Carnall commented: “Eurostar is committed to developing its reach with new channel partners for devices throughout the UK marketplace.
“The ever-increasing cost of devices coupled with managed services means that leasing propositions from specialist providers are an ever-increasing requirement for growth.”
Eurostar Global’s head of commercial and vendor management Steve Hankey said the growing reputation of Lease Telecom led to the two parties working together.
“As we continue to evolve our commercial offering to our loyal customers we quickly identified the need to be able to work with a partner to allow us to offer a leasing solution,” added Hankey.
