With margins consistently falling in the peripherals business, this sub-distributor increased its focus on the PC business. While Intel continued to be the major component of Sogo's business, it maintained a balanced profile of other vendors like Samsung, Epson and HP. The company also shifted its focus from reseller-oriented to end-user business. It also launched its own PC brand under the same name selling about 800 units every month through a chain of retail outlets in Karnataka. It now wants to add another 12 such outlets by next
quarter.
