Jansen to distribute Martin Audio in New Zealand
Published: ASIA

NEW ZEALAND: Jansen Professional Audio & Lighting has been appointed as the Martin Audio distributor for New Zealand. Also handling sales for the Pacific Islands, including Fiji, the distributor aims to extend the visibility Martin Audio currently enjoys in the bar and restaurant market to churches, auditoriums, outdoor spaces and school performance spaces.
‘We approached Martin Audio once we knew the brand was available because we recognised that it had huge untapped potential, but we have had our eye on Martin Audio for some time,’ explained Jansen director Simon Adams. ‘We had the ability to provide artist-to-audience coverage with the exception of the final part of the equation, where there was a large hole. We now have the loudspeakers.’
Prominent exposure will reportedly be given to the Martin Audio CCD range by setting up demonstration areas at the Jansen facility. ‘We will invite systems integrators and installers along to experience it for themselves and we will also take the CDD range on the road,’ Mr Adams confirmed. ‘The response back from our customer data base has been 100 per cent positive and we look forward to representing Martin Audio to a wider audience than it has been able to reach in the past.’
‘In looking for a new distributor for New Zealand, one of the main criteria was the need to provide the existing and prospective local customer base with a proactive, knowledgeable and enthusiastic partner able to meet the market’s needs and expectations in both pre- and post-sales service and support,’ added Martin Audio APAC account manager, Andy Duffield. ‘Jansen brings a wealth of experience both as a distributor and installer in New Zealand and further afield, thanks to their work both with Martin Audio and other complementary brands. Their ability to service products locally will also be extremely beneficial to Martin Audio’s many users in New Zealand and we are excited by the possibilities this new relationship opens up.’
