Telestream Flip4Mac Expands European Distribution
Digi-Box.co.uk to serve UK & Ireland as exclusive master distributor to
enhance local sales support throughout the region
Las Vegas, National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) Convention, April 16, 2007 – Telestream, the leading global provider of encoding-based media workflow solutions, today announced an exclusive master distributor relationship with Digi-Box.co.uk of the United Kingdom for its Flip4Mac Desktop Media Tools for the Mac products. Under the terms of the agreement Digi-Box.co.uk will be the exclusive master distributor of Telestream’s desktop product resale channel in the UK and Ireland.
“As the Flip4Mac product family continues to grow, we are now serving more and more customers in this region. The addition of Digi-Box as our master distribution partner in the United Kingdom and Ireland will help us build on our current success and provide local sales and support services to Mac users in this region,” said Barbara DeHart, VP of Telestream Flip4Mac. “Digi-Box is a proven distribution leader in the markets we serve. They will enable us to improve local sales and time zone support while strengthening our presence and position in this region.”
Digi-Box, which celebrates its 10th anniversary this year, is a product distribution company serving the broadcast, telecommunications and multi-media markets. The company uses its wealth of broadcast experience to represent a range of best-of-breed products from world-leading manufacturers. Due to recent success and a number of new supplier agreements, Digi-Box has recruited additional sales resource and, as well as continuing its successful broadcast sales, is exploring vertical markets.
Jon Phillips, MD of Digi-Box commented, “The Telestream Flip4Mac and Episode product lines compliment products we already sell through our dealer channel for both MAC and PC, further underscoring our commitment to provide leading edge technology to meet the needs of the Broadcast and Post Production marketplace. As master distributor, we will stock Flip4Mac WMV & MXF, Episode desktop and the recently announced Pipeline network encoder. Customers will experience the value add of a master distributor located in the territory through reduced lead times and shorter response times for warranty issues.”
Effective immediately, all sales through resellers for the above mentioned products in the UK and Ireland will be managed by Digi-Box.co.uk. Direct end-user online sales at
