Meyer Sound to open Dubai office
Published: MEA
MIDDLE EAST: Meyer Sound is to open a dedicated Middle East office in Dubai’s Media City to serve the Middle East, the Indian subcontinent and North Africa. Meyer Sound Middle East will offer technical support, design services and education, while product sales will continue to be handled through Meyer Sound’s existing distribution network.
‘The development of the A/V industry in the Middle East has made it essential for us to form a strategic presence in Dubai, which will serve as an important regional hub for our business operations in the territory,’ said Helen Meyer, executive vice president of Meyer Sound. ‘This new office will give local audio professionals better access to the complete portfolio of our products and services, and allow us to respond quickly to our clients’ needs.’
Under direct supervision of Mauricio Saint Martin, director of Middle East sales, the new office in Dubai will be a part of Meyer Sound’s global network of wholly owned subsidiaries that also include Germany, Mexico, and Canada. The manufacturer hopes that customers in North Africa, the Middle East, and the Indian subcontinent will now have a more direct line of communication with company headquarters in Berkeley.
‘The formation of our new office is the culmination of our overall momentum in the Middle East,’ added Mauricio Saint Martin. ‘We look forward to working more closely with our partners with this strengthened support structure and providing more direct and timely access to Meyer Sound’s technical expertise.
‘The main goal for this office will be supporting technically all of the current installations as well as future projects with design services, technical support, system tuning and education,’ he continues. ‘Education will play a big role, we will do local seminars but we also plan to travel internationally to do some remote education.’
Meyer Sound Middle East will commence operations on June 1st 2011.
