Announcement of Partner Appreciation Month and Celebration Activities

Audience: Internal employees

Context: Every September, Zebra celebrates Partner Appreciation Month as a way to acknowledge and recognize their partner community for their efforts. This article was published to share ways employees can participate in thanking partners.


Join the Celebration: September is Partner Appreciation Month at Zebra!

With more than 80% of Zebra sales being conducted through the channel, Zebra’s partners are at the core of our business. Each September, we recognize their importance with Partner Appreciation Month, a celebration of the critical contributions our partners make to Zebra, our mutual customers and the broader communities we serve together. 

 

Why a whole month dedicated to partners? 

  • Our network of global partners enables us to serve customers in every corner of the world.

  • Uniting hardware, software, and services, our partners enable the end-to-end solutions that today’s customers are looking for.

  • Our partners make it possible for us to empower every worker – from a nurse at a patient’s bedside to a forklift driver in a busy warehouse to a store associate.

  • Our partners have been through a lot over the past few years, and we want to recognize them for their commitment to Zebra.

 

Watch this thank you message from Anders to our partners where he expresses his gratitude towards them and reiterates our commitment to our channel-first business.
