Datacentrix has received the Growth Partner of the Year award from Hitachi Vantara.
The award highlights Datacentrix’s efforts to strengthen its enterprise data storage and digital infrastructure business through technical skills development, improved sales capabilities and closer collaboration with Hitachi Vantara.
According to Henry Minnaar, Business Unit Manager: Infrastructure Solutions at Datacentrix, the recognition reflects the company’s continued investment in people, technical expertise and identifying new opportunities in the local market.
“This is a strategic partnership for Datacentrix, and we’ve been laser focused on growing our enterprise data storage and digital infrastructure business by investing in our people, strengthening our technical and sales capabilities,” Minnaar said.
Datacentrix is a certified Data Infrastructure and Resell partner for Hitachi Vantara. The recognition follows its appointment as Hitachi Vantara’s New Partner of the Year in 2025.
Russ Alexander, Channel Manager: Alliances and Partnerships, Africa at Hitachi Vantara, said “Our relationship with Datacentrix reflects what we at Hitachi Vantara believe an organic and sustainable partnership should be: one that is deliberately cultivated over time, continually assessed and strengthened, and built to create lasting value for our mutual customers. Since the relationship began in 2019, we have seen it dynamically evolve to respond to changing market conditions and, most importantly, to the developing needs of our customers.”
The latest award marks another milestone in the partnership as both companies look to support organisations across Africa with their evolving data infrastructure, storage and hybrid cloud requirements.
