Pétrotey and A-T France to represent Genelec
- Details
This new distribution partnership is effective from 1 March 2021. With Audio-Technica already handling the distribution of Genelec products in the Netherlands and Spain, this move further strengthens the relationship between both companies, which will also benefit from the three decades of pro audio experience that the highly regarded Pétrotey brings, says the company.
Having held senior positions at Yamaha, Beyer, Lexicon and the TC Group, Pétrotey joined the Music Tribe organisation to oversee Western European sales - with particular responsibility for the TC Electronic, Tannoy, Lab Gruppen and Midas brands. His appointment enables Audio-Technica France to significantly expand Genelec’s regional brand presence, embrace new business opportunities and both support and engage with local customers more effectively.
Petrotey comments, “To have the opportunity to be part of the Audio-Technica team in France, and to represent Genelec, is doubly exciting. Professional loudspeakers are a particular passion of mine, so the prospect of being involved with the undisputed market leader in this field is something I’ll relish.”
Genelec international sales director Ole Jensen adds, “I’ve known Gilles for many years and have had the pleasure of working alongside him. I can’t think of anyone better qualified to be the face of Genelec in France, and with the professionalism of the Audio-Technica distribution team behind him, we look forward to a long and successful relationship.”
