Erikson Pro Selects SLS International's Products for Exclusive Distribution |
Canada's Largest Distributor of Audio Equipment Signs Exclusive Distribution Agreement to Market Company's Audio Equipment Throughout Canada SPRINGFIELD, Mo., July 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- SLS International, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: SITI) announced today that it has signed a distribution agreement with Erikson Pro, Canada's largest importer and distributor of audio equipment. Erikson Pro, a division of Jam Industries, will distribute the SLS Loudspeaker product lines throughout Canada.
Jam Industries imports and distributes audio products from around the World and had $100 million in annual Canadian revenues. The company has chosen SLS to be its premier loudspeaker line for the future. Christian Bouchard, Vice President of Erikson Pro first heard the SLS products in Los Angeles, Ca. at the Winter NAMM (National Association of Music Merchants) trade show in January, 2003 and was very impressed with the SLS technology. He later made a special visit to the SLS factory to learn about and listen to the different products.
"The SLS has truly remarkable speakers," said Mr. Bouchard. "The ribbon drivers that they have developed really work for the Professional market. Other companies have ribbon drivers but none of them can handle the use and abuse of the Professional market. Since we have brought in the SLS speakers we have had many very professional sound engineers and production companies listen to and test the SLS products. In every case, there has been overwhelming positive response to the products. We have also had several comparative demonstrations (shoot outs) with products from the most well-known speaker manufacturers worldwide and SLS has been the hands down winner. One of our very prominent production companies that provides sound systems for major venues and events has purchased a 32 box SLS, RLA/2 system and has been using them for events in 20,000 seat venues. This is amazing because the RLA/2 system is designed for small to medium size venues. It is because the SLS line array products really work. There is not enough that I can say about the SLS products. There is nothing like them and we are very excited to be their distributor for Canada."
"Canada is a very important market for us," stated John Gott, President of SLS International. "We are extremely pleased to have such a prestigious and well-connected distributor as Erikson Pro to be our distributor. The Canadian music scene has been producing some of the world's biggest stars recently and through Erikson's connections our products will be put in front of some of the most influential people in the industry. This will help generate growing revenues over the next several years but more important it will add to our Branding Campaign that has recently begun to position the SLS products at the top of the audio industry." |
