Sales-All Takes on Benelux Distribution for SGM

Rentall, the Netherlands-based technology sales and rental company, has been appointed exclusive Benelux distributors for SGM lighting -- under its newly formed division, Sales-All BV.

The appointment was confirmed, with immediate effect at this year's PLASA Show in London, by company director Michel Roelofsen, and SGM's managing director Peter Johansen and export area manager Steen Geertsen.

Along with co-founder Theo van Workum; Roelofsen has built up a formidable sales and rental company over the past 15 years, with bases throughout Holland and Germany. Their channels to market take them into television and architectural applications as well as concert and theatre touring.

"We are extremely impressed with the new range of SGM products -- and, over the years we have also sold a lot of older SGM fixtures," he stated. "It's important that we can do business with people we already know and will be restructuring the company to accommodate this innovative new range. It's great to see that Peter Johansen is back in the business."

The SGM managing director responded: "This move goes further than a simple distributor appointment -- Sales-All will become an integrated technical partner who will provide the input and feedback we need to move forward; they are very focused technically."

Sales-All has already made a substantial investment, consolidating the new move by purchasing 500 of the new X-5 LED strobes and will be adding XC-5 RGB strobes once these are in production. They have also modified SGM's new installation LED Balls into a touring version, to meet a hire company requirement for a theatre tour, and have purchased 220 of the new completely silent Genio Mobile Compact high power LED color changing projectors for a separate dance tour.

"This is just the beginning," believes Roelofsen. "We are anticipating a long and mutually-successful partnership with SGM."
