Executive Director Factor Group also noted that large companies began to reduce their requirements for equipment during tenders and began to consider solutions from other suppliers, including those from Asia.

“I think that gradually more and more Russian customers will be ready to buy equipment from Asian vendors that were previously not very well known on the market, since the quality of their products is not slightly worse, and in some places even better than that of recognized Western manufacturers,” Larin notes.

Croc told the publication that earlier customers did not want to buy Maipu and Gooxi instead Dell, HPE and Lenovo. And in the absence of a special choice, Russian companies begin to choose these solutions, the director of the Infrastructure Solutions direction Croc told Tadviser Alexander Sysoev.

The Marvel Distribution company noted that domestic companies themselves now request from the distributor products that can be supplied to Russia directly without the help of third countries, with all licenses and guarantees. “Therefore, we are looking for those manufacturers who are ready to work with us officially,” says Nadezhda Pchelintseva. “These are primarily Chinese companies.”
