Acer brings monitor production to SA

Acer is revving up its South African presence by launching local monitor production.

This move signifies Acer’s dedication to creating jobs, empowering communities, and making top-notch technology more accessible.

More than just monitors

Acer isn’t just assembling screens; they’re building a bridge to a more tech-savvy South Africa.

Their local production initiative injects jobs into the tech sector, fostering growth and opportunity.

They recognize that affordable access to technology fuels economic development and social progress.

By producing monitors locally, Acer aims to make this vital tool more readily available without compromising quality or performance.

The war for tech literacy: Why monitors matter

“Our competition isn’t just other brands,” declares Glenn Du Toit, Acer Africa’s Country Manager.

 

 

“It’s the fight for tech literacy.” He emphasizes the importance of monitors in today’s digital world, especially as laptops become increasingly compact.

High-quality monitors provide a larger, more comfortable workspace, reducing eye strain and fatigue.

Let’s face it, not all monitors are created equal. Cheap alternatives can strain your eyes, unlike the Acer ranges coming your way.

Here’s a sneak peek at what’s in store:

August 2024: The consumer range arrives, promising sleek designs, superior performance, and affordability.  Users will get to choose from 24-inch and 27-inch 100Hz IPS monitors, perfect for everyday use.

September 2024:  The commercial monitor range follows, delivering quality and reliability.

Acer’s commitment to local production has struck a chord with national retailers and channel partners.

Their enthusiasm surpasses expectations, with retailers readily allocating prime floor space for Acer monitors.

This overwhelming support demonstrates confidence in Acer’s vision and a shared passion for boosting the South African economy.

“Supporting the local economy resonates with our partners,” says Du Toit. “It’s a win-win for everyone.”

Peace of mind guaranteed

All locally produced Acer monitors come with a reassuring 3-year warranty, ensuring worry-free performance for consumers and businesses alike. Acer’s stringent quality control measures guarantee monitors that are built to last.
