For some time the Vestax Corporation has been developing the innovative VRX-2000 Vinyl Cutter, which was recently launched for the UK market. Other recent product releases include the PMC-08 Pro Mixer and the innovative CDR-07 Performance CD-Writer.
In recent years, Vestax Europe Ltd has distributed the Vestax range of products in the UK, however, Vestax Europe will cease trading on 31 March 2006. Managing director for Leisuretec Distribution Nick Spalding commented: "Distributing products for the DJ market is second nature for Leisuretec, having originated and been consistently prominent in this sector from the early 90s. The addition of the Vestax range of products strengthens Leisuretec's offering to its trade customers which means customers in the immediate future will be able to source the strongest brands, for example Denon, Pioneer and Vestax from one company, with one order, one delivery and one invoice to process, which we hope will make our customer's company's more efficient and profitable too."
Spalding added: "It's an exciting time for everybody involved with the Vestax brand, the original founder of the Vestax Corporation in Japan, Mr Shino has come out of retirement to put the pizzazz back into Vestax products and the corporation in Japan has adopted a new corporate image that is very eye catching. There are also a number of exciting products that have been released and more in development which will open doors to a number of different markets."
'Leisuretec's ambition with the Vestax brand in the UK is to add-value to any dealer that embraces the changes that are occurring. We will be using our strength of relationships with other manufacturers in this market to deliver exciting promotions that we hope will encourage dealer and end-user alike to embrace the Vestax brand with a positive attitude."
Andrew Duffield, formerly with Harman Pro UK, has been employed by Leisuretec to establish a network of dealers for the Vestax range of products.
