Syndico becomes Mobile Tornado’s exclusive UK distributor
Mobile Tornado, a leading MCPTT solution provider, has entered a strategic partnership with Syndico, one of the world’s top distributors of professional communication technologies. Under the agreement, Syndico will become Mobile Tornado’s exclusive distributor in the UK, consolidating and expanding access to its advanced enterprise communication solutions.
This partnership reflects the growing market demand for flexible and scalable Push-to-Talk Over Cellular (PTToC) technology as organisations across logistics, retail, security, healthcare, and public safety seek modern alternatives to narrowband two-way radios. Mobile Tornado’s platform provides a robust communication solution that enhances productivity, safety, and operational efficiency.

What the partnership means for UK resellers
As part of this agreement, all existing Mobile Tornado UK resellers will now operate under Syndico’s distribution model. It will oversee reseller onboarding, training, sales, and first-level technical support, providing a streamlined, single point of contact for partners.
The Mobile Tornado solution provides robust support including instant voice communication, GPS tracking, and safety alerts, all delivered via smart devices. For resellers, working with a value-add distribution specialist means access to consistent stock availability, dedicated technical support, and marketing resources that make it easier to sell push-to-talk over cellular solutions into key industries, including:
- Push-to-Talk – instant voice communication with no geographical limits, connecting colleagues the moment a device has a Wi-Fi or cellular signal.
- Push-to-Locate – real-time tracking of colleagues, so teams can communicate based on location and monitor lone or remote workers.
- Push-to-Alert – instant emergency alerts that let teams respond quickly to developing situations.
- Workforce Management – integrated task management tools that keep communication focused on operational efficiency.
About Syndico: a value-add distribution specialist
Syndico is a value-add distributor specialising in two-way communication, body-worn video, and drone technology solutions. The company services a network of more than 600 reseller partners across the UK, EMEA, and North America, providing logistics, technical, customer service, sales, and marketing support. The company already distributes other well-known communication brands, including Hytera, Kenwood, VoCoVo, Zebra Technologies, and DJI, and is based in Hedge End, Southampton.
The company describes its role as “the bridge between manufacturer and reseller”, allowing manufacturers like Mobile Tornado to focus on product development while resellers focus on their customers. The addition of Mobile Tornado’s PTToC platform to Syndico’s brand portfolio gives UK resellers a broader, more competitive range of enterprise communication technology to offer their customers.
What Mobile Tornado’s Managing Director said
Luke Wilkinson, Managing Director at Mobile Tornado, commented, “Partnering with Syndico marks a significant step forward for us in the UK market. Syndico’s expertise in value-added distribution and strong reseller network will help us drive adoption of our industry-leading solutions. Together, we are ready to meet the evolving communication needs of enterprises across key sectors.”
The distributor’s reaction to the partnership
Andrew Wilson at Syndico, added, “Push-to-Talk over Cellular is emerging as a crucial technology for modern enterprise communication and we are seeing ever-increasing demand for these solutions, both from users of traditional Push-to-Talk technology and those who have never employed PTT as a method of organisational communication before.
After a comprehensive tender process and extensive testing, it was clear to us that Mobile Tornado’s PTToC technology is superior to other solutions. By integrating Mobile Tornado’s powerful platform into our portfolio, we equip our resellers with high-performance tools that deliver instant, reliable connectivity for customers in diverse industries. This partnership strengthens our ability to provide end-to-end solutions that improve collaboration and efficiency.”
Why organisations are choosing PTT over cellular
While traditional Push-to-Talk solutions are established, they lack the flexibility that many modern applications require as organisations in key industries look to stay competitive and meet the demands of their various stakeholders. A shift towards deploying PTT communication via smart devices instead of proprietary two-way radio hardware is well underway, and Mobile Tornado has been driving that adoption in the UK market.
Mobile Tornado’s platform delivers carrier-grade system availability of 99.999% and voice transmission setup in under 0.5 seconds, with seamless transitions across 2G, 3G, 4G LTE, and 5G networks. It also supports more than 150,000 users across 30 countries, giving organisations confidence that the technology now being distributed in the UK by its new partner is proven at scale.
Beyond basic voice calls, the platform also includes a dispatch console that supports up to 64 simultaneous push-to-talk group sessions for control room teams, along with Push-to-Video for live visual awareness, Voice Recording for compliance and quality audits, and Lone Worker tools that combine location tracking with emergency alerts to help protect remote and field-based employees.
Conclusion
The new partnership between Mobile Tornado and Syndico gives UK organisations a clear route to modern, cloud-based push-to-talk over cellular technology, backed by its established reseller network and Mobile Tornado’s proven PTToC platform. As demand for flexible, smart-device-based communication continues to grow, this agreement positions both companies to support customers across logistics, retail, security, healthcare, and public safety with reliable, scalable solutions.
