Francesco Romagnoli, Clay Paky sales manager for North and Latin America, says he is very satisfied with this new partnership, which "is the result of an immediate feeling which arose both between the two companies and between the people involved. Cooperation with Hermes Music will make Clay Paky highly visible on the Mexican market, and in all Latin American countries in general, where shows are an important part of their strong musical-cultural background. Hermes has paved Clay Paky's way to a very interesting clientele. Our agreement will turn into a big sales opportunity for both companies."
Alberto Kreimerman, CEO of Hermes Music, says, "I have known Clay Paky for many years and have always appreciated the excellence of its products and services - from construction quality, reliability and performance to the assistance provided by the parent company. There is no doubt that Clay Paky lights have the right features to come out top on our market. At Hermes, we are all enthusiastic about this new opportunity."
Greg Morrison, vice-president of the company adds, "We met the Clay Paky top management at the LDI last year, where we laid the foundations for the current pact and agreed upon a common corporate strategy. There was immediate perfect understanding and we are very confident that our partnership will lead to great benefits both for Clay Paky and Hermes Music."
The joint action of the two companies will be further reinforced by the cooperation of Jorge Aguirre. He has been a Clay Paky commercial partner for several years and was appointed Clay Paky regional representative for continental Central America as part of this agreement.
