Ampco Flashlight Group has merged the recently acquired Audiopro Netherlands
with its sales companies TM Audio Holland and Lightco Netherlands in a move to
streamline the organisation. The three companies will now operate under the name
Ampco Flashlight Sales.
Audiopro Netherlands is one of the principal suppliers and installers of d & b
audiotechnik and Clearcom systems. It brings a strong brand package that is
supported by a number of experienced product specialists. TM Audio and Lightco are
system integrators and suppliers of brands such as Allen & Heath, Philips Vari-Lite
and DiGiCo.
Led by General Manager Peter de Fouw of Ampco Flashlight Group and Commercial
Director Rolf Dijkstra of Audiopro, Ampco Flashlight Sales’ brand portfolio, technical
know-how and experience will make it one of the leading sales operations in the
Benelux countries.
“By bringing together the various disciplines within the group and the combined
operations of sales and rentals, we are now able to offer our clients a wide range of
services quickly and competently,” says de Fouw.
Dijkstra adds: “From my technical background, I am able to see the huge potential
of this partnership. As part of the Ampco Flashlight Group, we have a greater scope
for more challenging and complex projects.”
Supported by its own service company Engine, Ampco Flashlight Sales will provide
installation and maintenance of theatres, concert venues and museums alongside
playing a crucial role in events and sporting competitions at the Amsterdam ArenA
and the Gelredome.
Dick van Berkum, CEO of Ampco Flashlight Group, comments: “I am pleased and
proud that we can take this step with Audiopro. I am confident that with the
experience and passion of our team we have an exciting future.”
