SanDisk Middle East and Africa (MEA), a leader in flash memory cards, has doubled its unit sales in Kuwait year on year for 2009 and 2010.

SanDisk is a Silicon Valley-based S&P 500 company, with more than half its sales outside the United States.

Its product portfolio includes flash memory cards for mobile phones, digital cameras and camcorders; digital audio/video players; USB flash drives for consumers and the enterprise; embedded memory for mobile devices; and solid state drives for computers.

SanDisk products are present in major retailers across Kuwait through its distribution partner, Future Communications Company.

“Kuwait has always been a vibrant market for us with a young population that is very technology savvy and trend conscious,” said Tareq Husseini, SanDisk MEA sales director.

“We have been co-operating with global and regional retailers such as Virgin Megastore and Eureka who have had a significant impact on making SanDisk the leading flash memory brand,” he added.-TradeArabia News Service
