Tech Data Launches accessTD

Mobile App Now Available for Free Download in Apple(R) App Store

CLEARWATER, Fla., Nov. 3, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tech Data Corporation (Nasdaq:TECD) today announced the initial launch of its accessTD mobile application for the Apple iPhone®, iPod touch® and iPad® at the Company's TechSelect Partner Conference in Orlando, Florida. accessTD includes much of the functionality of techdata.com, including product searches, pricing and availability information, order tracking, quoting and ordering, providing one-touch access to Tech Data inventory while enabling resellers to provide instant pricing to their end-user customers.

"The accessTD mobile app underscores our commitment to constantly provide valuable, time-saving opportunities for our customers, enabling access to Tech Data's product inventory anytime, anywhere," said Pete Peterson, Senior Vice President of U.S. Sales at Tech Data. "Our customers asked for a mobile solution, and we listened. This is an important step for Tech Data and we are proud to offer accessTD to our channel of resellers to simplify sales and improve customer service."

In keeping with its core strategy of innovation, Tech Data has expanded its presence in the mobility space by enabling e-business customers to use their techdata.com login and password information to sign into accessTD, which enables resellers to add items to a quote and email it to their customers, complete with their own markup and logos. The application's simple checkout process also allows resellers to quickly fill orders with one touch.

accessTD is now available in the United States via free download in Apple's App Store and is expected to be available in Canada next month.
