Tim Edwards spent 15 years as a working musician after leaving high school. He also has over 20 years experience in manufacturing sales to his credit, including 17 as an independent sales rep, with a special interest in lighting. This is where he first encountered Robe products, which were a great success for his business. Edwards says: "The Robe product is excellent, and I am looking forward to working with my friends and colleagues in Los Angeles and around the country!"
Michael Carattini commented: "We're very excited to have Tim Edwards aboard the Robe America team. His character, experience and contacts bring additional depth and maturity to the company, and will provide invaluable and solid foundations for our Western US operations."
Moving the Robe America West Coast operation to Burbank means Robe are close to all the major rental and production companies and film studios. The warehouse and office will be a full service and stocking location for Robe America.
The new address is: Robe America, 215 W. Palm Ave, Suite 102, Burbank, CA, 91502. New contact numbers will be announced shortly. In the meantime, all Robe West Coast enquiries should be directed via Robe America LLC on (954) 615 9100.
The move follows a recent restructuring of Robe America, complete with the establishment of a new East Coast operation in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and the appointment of Michael Carattini as President.
