Global technology solutions provider Arrow Electronics today announced it has earned the Frontier Distributor designation within the Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program.

The Frontier Distributor designation recognizes distributors that consistently enable channel partner success through scale, readiness and execution. It reflects strong operational maturity, channel partner enablement capabilities and measurable customer impact.

This achievement reflects Arrow's role in supporting channel partners and customers with the infrastructure, programs and services required to deliver outcomes using Microsoft technologies.

Arrow supports channel partners through ArrowSphere, its digital distribution platform, alongside regional technical, commercial and enablement teams across EMEA and North America. In November 2025, Microsoft named Arrow its 2025 Distribution Partner of the Year, recognizing ArrowSphere AI offerings, including ArrowSphere Assistant. The Frontier Distributor designation further strengthens Arrow's ability to help channel partners build, deploy and scale Microsoft cloud and AI solutions across multiple markets and industries.

Sophie Daval, director, hyperscalers, global ArrowSphere at Arrow's enterprise computing solutions business, said, "Microsoft's Frontier Distributor designation reflects the investments we continue to make in cloud, AI and technical enablement across our channel ecosystem. Following our recognition as Microsoft's 2025 Distribution Partner of the Year, this designation further reinforces our ability to help channel partners simplify cloud adoption, support AI deployments and build scalable services around Microsoft technologies."

"The Frontier Distributor designation recognizes leading Cloud Solution Provider distributors, such as Arrow, who help partners accelerate cloud solutions more effectively," said Alex Zagury, CVP, global channel sales, Microsoft. "This recognition reflects their ability to drive differentiation at scale and deliver meaningful value to small and medium-sized businesses."
