All new offices will report to Ron Marchant, general manager EMEA Sales, based at Shure EMEA's headquarters in Eppingen, Germany.
Markus Winkler, managing director of Shure EMEA, commented, "Establishing offices in these countries will complement the efforts of our local distributors. Through a close and on-going collaboration, we will offer additional levels of support to professional customers. In addition, our collective efforts will drive greater brand awareness of Shure's integrated systems portfolio among international organisations and global corporate customers based in these countries. We are excited about the possibilities this brings and the potential to further develop our strong position in those countries."
