Agreement Extends Kerlink’s Coverage Across the Entire IoT Value Chain And Increases Field Coverage Nationwide

PRESS RELEASE

Thorigné-Fouillard and Biarritz, France – Sept. 3, 2026, 6:00 p.m. CEST – Kerlink, (ALKLK – FR0013156007), a global specialist in Internet of Things (IoT) solutions, and DataPrint, one of France's leading professional IoT distributors, today announced a distribution partnership that extends Kerlink's market coverage in France and reinforces its ecosystem of trusted distribution partners.

Under the terms of the partnership, DataPrint will distribute Kerlink's full portfolio of LoRaWAN® gateways, including both the Wirnet™ indoor and outdoor ranges. In addition to providing hardware, DataPrint will promote Kerlink's expert-backed services designed to help customers deploy, secure, and operate their LoRaWAN® networks faster and with greater confidence.

Extending Coverage Across the IoT Value Chain

The partnership allows Kerlink and DataPrint to jointly cover the entire IoT value chain — gateways and services from Kerlink, combined with DataPrint's broad range of LoRaWAN® sensors — to deliver complete solutions and extend field coverage nationwide. It is designed to accelerate growth in key IoT markets, including smart buildings, smart cities, and industrial IoT, by leveraging DataPrint's ecosystem and market expertise.

The agreement also gives Kerlink access to new key accounts and integrators, complementing its existing routes to market in France. It further enhances the level of technical support available to end-customers, with the ultimate goal of increasing LoRaWAN® business volumes in France.

DataPrint brings recognized expertise in customer technical support, along with a comprehensive one-stop-shop approach spanning gateways, sensors, modules, routers, and connectivity solutions. The company has nationwide commercial coverage, deep expertise across key IoT verticals such as smart buildings, and an active presence at major industry events and trade shows, allowing it to address integrators, installers and key accounts alike.

Confidence in LoRaWAN® Deployments

The partnership reflects Kerlink's confidence in the continued growth of IoT and LoRaWAN® deployments across France, particularly in smart-building applications such as energy monitoring and utility submetering. As customers increasingly expect end-to-end solutions combining gateways, sensors, connectivity, and support services, DataPrint's one-stop-shop model aligns closely with this market trend.

“This partnership gives our customers access to complete IoT solutions, from sensors to gateways to services, all in one place — and that's what makes it so valuable,” said William Gouesbet, Kerlink CEO. “It's not just about combining hardware: it's about pairing DataPrint's reach and sensor range with the expertise behind Kerlink's own services, so customers can deploy, secure, and operate their networks faster and with greater confidence. With the LoRaWAN® market accelerating, we're confident this alliance positions us to grow even faster.”
