Office Depot Announces Partner Agreement with Master Agent

Office Depot, Inc. has signed a channel partner agreement with MicroCorp, a value-added distributor, based near Atlanta, with a portfolio of solutions from more than 75 telecom and cloud providers.

“Office Depot delivers enterprise-level managed service solutions, right-sized for small businesses,” said SMB Sales VP Heather Tenuto. “The new partnership with MicroCorp is yet another proof point of Office Depot’s shift from a primarily product-based company into a product and services-driven enterprise that leverages our omni-channel platform to provide a wider range of solutions for customers.”

That omni-channel approach includes approximately 1,400 stores, an online presence, its sales force and 6,000 field technicians, made available through last November’s acquisition of CompuCom.

“Office Depot’s shift to an omni-channel approach in delivering to ITaaS demonstrates how technology and the Internet are impacting traditional ways of doing business,” said Phil Keenan, president of MicroCorp. “We are thrilled to be involved in their initial launch, bringing more innovative ways for our partners to transform their businesses.”

Offerings include network services, security, operations services, device management, and virtual CIO consulting.
