SECAUCUS, NJ--(Marketwire - March 29, 2011) - Panasonic, a leader in business telephone systems, today announced the introduction of a new regional channel distribution program for its business telephone systems (BTS) in the U.S. market. This program, which complements and enhances Panasonic's existing distribution structure, allows regional distributors localized in specific geographies within the U.S. to participate in distributing Panasonic BTS products for the first time. These distributors bring to the table their own specialized dealer networks that will help expand the overall channel reach for Panasonic BTS products and allow the introduction of BTS product to more end-users than ever before.

The program, known officially as the Panasonic BTS Tier II Distribution Program, will launch in May 2011. It will offer smaller dealers the opportunity to reap the benefits of being part of the Panasonic BTS dealer network, including the scalable BTS product line, simple configuration tools, powerful proposal templates, award-winning training support, and accessible, knowledgeable customer service.

Regional distributors serve a local dealer base in a very customer-centric way, allowing them to capture previously untapped market opportunities. Atlantel, Inc., in Georgia and King Technologies in Tennessee are the first two regional distribution partners to join the new program.
