Lenovo New Zealand has emerged from the COVID-19 pandemic and supply chain crisis stronger while still trailing arch rival HP.

Lenovo’s local PC and device business doubled revenue since 2019, from $91.4 million to $183.4 million, while HP’s local revenue remained relatively flat over the same period and declined by just over 10 per cent in 2021.

While Lenovo’s infrastructure group, Lenovo Global Technology, does not appear to report its New Zealand results separately, that business has also grown across Australia and New Zealand (A/NZ), from $171.6 million in 2019 to $243.5 million in 2021.

In line with global results, HPE reported relatively flat New Zealand revenue of around $130 million over the past few years, in what appears to be a substantial lead over Lenovo’s local infrastructure business once again.

HP NZ and HPE NZ both report their results to the end of October while Lenovo reports to 31 March.

Lenovo NZ country general manager Libby Macgregor said she was unable to comment on the specifics of the local business’ financials or on competitors. However, she was prepared to talk about local initiatives and the local market, including channel development initiatives such as Lenovo 360.
