MIDAS AND KLARK TEKNIK APPOINT NEW CHINESE DISTRIBUTOR

Midas and Klark Teknik have appointed Rightway Audio as their exclusive Chinese distributor.

With headquarters on the Chinese mainland in Guangzhou as well as branches in Hong Kong, Beijing and Shanghai, the well-established company is in a strong position to increase the brands' market share in the region. Rightway has represented Klark Teknik's Square ONE range since its launch in 1996, selling more units into China than any other territory. The company also has the huge distinction of selling four XL8s into the Chinese market, as well as having purchased a demonstration model. Together with an extensive inventory of spares and a team of staff trained by Midas and Klark Teknik service manager Karl Brant, Rightway is poised to offer excellent before- and after-sales service, and is enthusiastic about adding the brands to its already-prestigious product portfolio.

"This is wonderful for us," says Rightway sales manager Alan Wong. "The Chinese market is well aware that Midas and KT are big names, and as the new sole distributor we are very proud to represent these brands in China. We are looking to expand Midas and Klark Teknik right across the board, through live sound, theatre and broadcast."

Adds Midas and Klark Teknik sales and marketing director David Cooper, "Rightway Audio Consultants have proved with their XL8 sales that they have the technical knowledge and connections to sell and support Midas digital products. As we move more and more into the digital realm our distributors require employees with technical knowledge, and Rightway have some of the best in the business. I'm very much looking forward to a long and prosperous relationship between our two companies in one of the most important world markets."
