German-Dutch storage company Freecom has appointed Rashi Peripherals as its
national distributor. With this new tie-up, Rashi will now have external storage
devices in its product basket.

Ruud Van Der Linden, Senior VP-Sales, Freecom said, "We were looking for
a partner who not only has wide network but also has equally well set of
products to compliment with our range of products and Rashi is surely going to
provide us the right platform to create good market."

Rashi is all set to market and sell Freecom' hard disk-based external storage
products including mobile, portable and desktop range. Further to this, Rashi
plans to expand Freecom product portfolio that includes multimedia products like
Network MediaPlayer-35, (a multimedia player with integrated hard drive, network
connection and media streaming function) and MusicPAL.

Kapal Pansari, Director-Marketing, Rashi Peripherals said, "With PC now
being used much beyond conventional work especially for entertainment, users
like to carry their personal data anywhere and everywhere. Freecom with its wide
range for various segments will prove to be a right solution for users looking
for not only portability but also aesthetically appealing and rugged
products."
