Commenting on the partnership, Mr. Tushar Sighat -VP - Operations said “Computer Source Limited and Data Edge are at the forefront of the technology market in Bangladesh for distribution of specialized IT products.

Both companies are a perfect fit for our business model of unified security, and with their expertise, we would surely be able to reach out to the emerging market in Bangladesh."

Excited about its appointment as National Distributor, the spokesperson of Computer Marketing Company, Bangladesh said “CSL has always partnered with leaders of technology & expertise.
