HCL has signed a lucrative deal with Xerox to integrate the company's managed printing services.

The two industry heavyweights will reportedly combine Xerox office services with HCL's desktop management to create a more efficient print environment.

"The partnership with HCL will open new opportunities for Xerox in this high growth market while bringing sustainable business benefits to more customer worldwide," said Stephen Cornin of Xerox Global Services.

HCL's latest tie-up with Xerox follows a recent agreement with Sandisk to distribute mobile phone memory cards in India.

"The explosive growth of the mobile phone market in India has driven the need for Sandisk to increase its distribution capacity. Our partnership underlines the synergy with the mobile distribution capabilities of HCL and Sandisk’s exciting offering for mobile phones. With this partnership we aim to have a wider reach in one of the largest mobile markets in the world," explained Sanjay Mehrotra, president and COO of Sandisk.

CEO Ajai Chowdhry attributed HCL's current success to its diverse business portfolio, which includes clients in the hardware, distribution and system integration sectors. X
