Mitsumi Distribution has signed a strategic partnership agreement with Barracuda Networks, aimed at expanding its cybersecurity offerings across African markets. The announcement was made during GITEX Africa 2025 in Marrakech, Morocco.

The agreement is expected to enhance Mitsumi’s portfolio with enterprise-grade, AI-driven cybersecurity solutions, addressing the increasing demand for robust digital infrastructure amid rising cyber threats in the region.

“This partnership with Barracuda is a significant step forward as we address the growing demand for secure and scalable IT infrastructure,” said Rajveer Shah, Director at Mitsumi Distribution.

The collaboration reflects broader trends across the continent, where organizations are modernizing legacy systems and investing in secure, cloud-native technologies. Mitsumi’s participation at GITEX Africa 2025 also highlighted its interest in artificial intelligence, predictive analytics, and emerging enterprise technologies.

Industry events such as GITEX provide a platform for technology distributors to engage with stakeholders, explore market trends, and form new alliances. Mitsumi is expected to use the momentum from the event to strengthen its regional presence and accelerate access to next-generation IT solutions.

The company serves multiple sectors including telecommunications, finance, public services, and manufacturing, leveraging its vendor network, logistics infrastructure, and local support services.

With the Barracuda partnership now in place, Mitsumi is positioned to support a growing number of African enterprises seeking to enhance cybersecurity and adopt digital-first strategies.
