iRU is again among the top five desktop PC suppliers

According to the results of the 4th quarter of 2018, iRU, one of the leading Russian manufacturers of computer equipment, has become one of the top 5 leaders in the supply of desktop PCs. Based on the analytical report of IDC Russia (an international research and consulting company involved in studying the world market for information technologies and telecommunications), iRU ranks fourth among the key brands in the desktop segment.

The research of the Russian PC market showed that in the 4th quarter of 2018, according to IDC PC Quarterly Tracker, about 1.6 million desktop and laptop PCs were supplied to Russia, which is 11.2% more than in the same period of 2017.

Supplies of desktop PCs in the 4th quarter increased by 0.5% as compared to last year and amounted to 537 thousand pieces. The list of leaders in the desktop segment: HP Inc. (1st place), Lenovo (2nd place), Acer (3rd place), iRU (4th place) and Dell (5th place).

"In 2018, there was an increase in computer equipment purchases from large, medium and small businesses. Organizations continue to update computers purchased five years ago. Online sales are one of the drivers of mobile device sales growth in the retail sector. In addition, the growth is positively affected by the improved opportunities to purchase goods with the use of the installment payment programs", — says Natalia Vinogradova, Research Program Manager, IDC Russia.

It is worth noting that iRU has maintained its position as one of the top 5 desktop PCs suppliers almost every quarter in recent years.
