The Diffazur Canon Club forms the cornerstone of Canon Middle East’s Channel strategy in Morocco in terms of recognising and rewarding key partners.
Fouad Jamali, MD of Diffazur said, “The Diffazur Canon Club marks an innovative approach to Channel relations. Morocco boasts one of the strongest IT networks which is not only proactive and reliable, but which also continuously strives to attain excellence. Events such as the Diffazur Canon Club which recognise the country’s top performing channel partners are key to fostering continued growth and delivering end users with superior product line up and experience.”

“The Diffazur Canon Club in Morocco aims to support channel partners achieve even more profitability by distinguishing them in the market place through product knowledge, customer insights and world class product line ups,” Baalla said.
The Diffazur Canon Club is intended to be a core part of Canon’s business in Morocco and will evolve in line with market demands. Top performing Diffazur Canon Club partners will be recognised regularly through various motivational reward schemes.
