Distribution Management (DM, Nashville, Tennessee) was recently selected to receive two HP Partner of the Year awards for printer hardware and supplies at HP’s AMPLIFY Partner Conference. AMPLIFY is HP’s largest partner forum, bringing together HP channel partners from around the world. The Partner of the Year awards recognize top-performing HP partners for collaborative efforts and strategic growth throughout the previous year. Distribution Management was honored as the U.S. Supplies Distributor of the Year as well as the U.S. Print Hardware Distributor of the Year (see photo above).
Distribution Management, formerly known as Supplies Network, has had a long-standing reputation as a leading HP supplies distributor. In recent years, the shift in the channel toward hardware distribution has allowed DM to apply its well-established reliable service, category expertise, and one- to two-day delivery reach to the distribution of print hardware to reseller partners.
“Congratulations to Distribution Management for winning the HP 2025 Supplies Distributor of the Year Award, as well as the HP 2025 Print Hardware Distributor of the Year Award,” said Scott Lannum, interim managing director of HP North America. “We truly appreciate DM’s partnership and look forward to continued mutual growth in the coming year.”
“For the first time, Distribution Management has been recognized as the #1 distributor of both HP supplies as well as print hardware. This achievement underscores our unwavering commitment to excellence, innovation, and delivering top-tier solutions to our partners,” said Greg Welchans, president and CMO at Distribution Management. “We are humbled and honored by this recognition and remain dedicated to driving success in the industry.”
