I’m looking forward to getting closer to our end user cliental so that we can understand their needs better, and then empower our partners to deliver solutions that provide their desired business outcomes.”
This vision is shared by Jamie Dickinson, who joined Datalogic as retail sales director for the UK&I at the beginning of the year.

Our heritage in retail scanning is what we are famous for. However, Datalogic also has some excellent mobile computing products available to retail clients that are looking to improve customer experience and operational efficiency across their supply chains. Together with the retail team in the UK, my mission is to help evolve this area of the business and to elevate the level of support we offer our channel partners to help them achieve success.”
Together, Kamran and Jamie bring a comprehensive understanding of their respective markets but importantly, the challenges faced, and support needed by partners to ensure that end customer requirements are being met.
