Nitin Anasane is President, ACDA

AMRAVATI: Amravati Computer Dealers Association (ACDA), has announced the names of the office bearers for the year 2010-2011 post the elections held in April. Nitin Anasane has been appointed as the President and Prashant Naik as the VP of the Gujarat-based trade association.

“I am elated to be nominated as the President of ACDA for the FY 2010-11. It was a general decision taken by the members. Currently, I will be concentrating on the summer exhibition, which is planned for June and also the PC Utsav, which will be conducted in January next year. In order to maintain a steady growth in the market, I feel that relationship with any IT company is very important. During the summer exhibition there will be companies displaying their products along with live demo,” said Anasane. “We do not mind adding members to our association but we expect them to be genuine and know the tricks of the trade to deal with the customers,” he added.

Along with IT fairs, ACDA plans to associate themselves with other social activities to benefit the rural and tribal people. According to Naik, “The main focus will be to educate the tribal students in Melghat near Chikhaldhara. We would teach them the basic use of the computer, difference between desktop and laptops.” ACDA also plans to introduce a special program among their partners in order to increase the growth of the business in the market. “We want to engage a particular company with one partner in our region so that this will help them in achieving their targets smoothly and without any confusion. If every partner is dealing with various product brands, they do not achieve their targets on time. So it is better if the partner decides to stick to one company and reach his targets with the same,” added Anasane.

Also ACDA is facing problems regarding fewer number of service stations in their region. Partners have to send products to Nagpur to get them serviced. According to the members, Octroi is a major concern when it comes to sending products to other regions.
