Green Hippo has welcomed two new distribution specialists to its growing international sales network.
Representing the brand in Australia and New Zealand is Melbourne-based Corsair Solutions. Established in 2009, Corsair imports and distributes professional and commercial audio-visual equipment and has established itself as a trusted partner of audio-visual system integrators, pro audio and video equipment resellers and equipment rental companies throughout Australia and New Zealand. Corsair also distributes Green Hippo’s sister brand within Spitfire Creative Technologies, tvONE.
At the same time, Wholestage has been appointed to represent Green Hippo in Latin America and the Caribbean. Founded in Venezuela in 1998, Wholestage is today based in Miami, Florida, with offices in Colombia, Dominican Republic, Panama, Chile and Spain. It specialises in the distribution of pro video, audio, rigging, lighting and control, and provides the latest technologies and solutions to the Central American, South American and Caribbean markets.
Mark Lampard, managing director of Corsair Solutions, comments, “We are extremely proud to be representing Green Hippo. As a distributor of many complex, highly technical products, we thrive on educating our partners and end users on their technical benefits and why they are valuable. As a market leader, Green Hippo naturally provides us with an exciting new entry into the live production and entertainment industries which will also allow us to cross-promote some of our other brands.”
Speaking on behalf of Wholestage, CEO Luis Duque says, “Green Hippo brings solutions for the management of media content which integrate perfectly with the brands that we already distribute. Our reputation allows us to recommend and demonstrate product directly to our customers, who have complete confidence in our recommendations. That’s why we take great care in what we offer – we have to be sure of the product and the brand behind it. We welcome Green Hippo with great enthusiasm – their range will undoubtedly reinforce our premium portfolio of comprehensive solutions.”
Green Hippo’s Sales Director David March comments, “We are delighted to partner with Wholestage and Corsair Solutions, both of whom have strong, professional reputations in their respective markets, and share our commitment to providing the best possible solutions and support. We look forward to working with them and their customers in the future.”
