Crestron Expands and Takes Direct Control of the UK Market

Effective immediately, the RGB Communications Crestron Distributorship has been terminated. This exciting new development signals growth, creates new opportunities, and provides Crestron dealers in the UK with direct product supply, customer support and a consistent pricing program.

This new move allows Crestron, the world leader in control, automation and distribution solutions, to be the sole provider of all of its products and systems throughout the United Kingdom. Crestron can now offer all of its UK dealers a direct, exclusive route for regular, lower pricing, factory-direct product warranty policies and our award-winning True Blue customer support.

"We understand that our role in the UK as the leader in control means that we need to have direct relationships with our dealers in this very important market," explained Executive Vice President Randy Klein. "We're very confident that this new, distributor-free process of supply, support and pricing will make our UK dealers very happy and increase their business significantly."

This reorganization is just the latest example of Crestron's commitment to providing the best products, support and distribution in the industry. The company recently closed its financial year, where revenues grew nearly 50% and expenditures in product development and customer support were doubled.

Crestron UK, under the direction of Robin van Meeuwen, recently opened new offices in Kingston-upon-Thames, Surrey that were custom designed to provide first-class technical support and the facility's fully equipped training room provides a comfortable setting for regularly held courses in system design and programming, free of charge to dealers.
