DirectOut announces the strengthening of its distribution network in Japan, combining its longstanding partnership with Restar Corporation with a new collaboration between AT distribution, a division of SSL Japan K.K., and ReWire Inc.
"Japan is an important market for DirectOut, and building strong, long-term relationships with our customers remains a key priority - comments Lorenzo Sassi, Director of Sales at DirectOut - By combining the experience and expertise of Restar, AT distribution and ReWire, we are establishing a well-coordinated distribution and support network that allows us to be closer to our customers, better understand their needs and provide the highest level of service and technical support across different applications."
The new structure brings together established expertise in broadcast, system integration and live sound, reinforcing DirectOut's commitment to the Japanese market and ensuring closer customer relationships and dedicated local support.
DirectOut's presence in Japan was originally established through TAC System, led by Jun Yamazaki, whose longstanding partnership with the company played a key role in developing DirectOut's position in the Japanese broadcast market.
Following TAC System's acquisition by Restar Corporation, the partnership continues under Restar, which remains a DirectOut distributor. With extensive expertise in audiovisual and communication technologies, Restar provides comprehensive solutions spanning system implementation, integration and technical support.
Alongside Restar, DirectOut welcomes AT distribution, a distribution division of professional audio products with Kensuke Matsui as the Managing Director, operated by SSLJapan K.K.. With over 40 years of industry experience and an established network of professional audio customers, AT distribution will work in partnership with Rewire Inc. to expand DirectOut's presence in the Japanese market.
Led by Mack Miyamura, ReWire brings extensive experience in professional live audio, supplying premium equipment and solutions to production companies across the entire signal chain. Its established market presence and relationships with leading international brands will support the adoption of DirectOut solutions among live sound professionals in Japan.
This collaborative approach marks another step in DirectOut's commitment to the Japanese market and its ambition to reinforce its position as a leading provider of professional audio solutions in East Asia.
