Blackview – Quality technology at affordable pricing through Arbalest

Blackview is a globally-renowned technology brand that was founded in March 2013, and it has been distributed in South Africa by leading technology distributor Arbalest since 2019.

Arbalest prides itself on offering the best international technology products and services at affordable prices, as well as finding unique ways to deliver more value to users.

Arbalest is an award-winning Blackview distributor in South Africa, and since distributing the brand has grown the sales over 40- 50% year on year for the last 4 years.

Award-winning Arbalest

With such impressive sales numbers, it is no surprise that Arbalest has won multiple awards from Blackview that recognise its position as a global leader in Blackview product distribution.

In 2023, Arbalest has already won a Certificate of Honour for being one of the top 10 esteemed and valued Blackview global partners of 2023.

It was also crowned the importer and distributor to achieve the highest volume of Blackview sales in 2023 for South Africa.

Thanks to this success in growing Blackview’s brand locally, it has also been appointed as the exclusive South African distributor of Oscal products – Blackview’s sister brand.

How Arbalest promotes Blackview tech

Arbalest has managed these impressive achievements by taking innovative approaches to its sales processes.

Examples of this include bundling Blackview devices with products from other brands to deliver maximum value to customers.

A great example of this is its Blackview Power in a Box offering, which combines the Blackview MP60 mini-PC with a Samsung monitor, a Logitech mouse, and a Logitech keyboard.

Through this bundle, South Africans have access to a comprehensive PC setup – empowering them to stay productive in their studies, at work, or at home.

Arbalest is committed to finding new ways to expand Blackview’s presence and popularity even more locally – putting Blackview’s high-quality technology products in the hands of more South Africans.
