Note to Editors:
Midwich is a specialist AV and document solutions distributor to the trade market, with operations in the UK and Ireland, France, Germany and Australasia. The Group's long-standing relationships with over 300 vendors, including blue-chip organisations such as Samsung, LG, Epson and NEC, supports a comprehensive product portfolio across major audio visual categories such as large format displays, projectors, digital signage and printers. The Group operates as the sole or largest in-country distributor for a number of its vendors in their respective product sets. The Directors attribute this position to the Group's technical expertise, extensive product knowledge and strong customer service offering built up over a number of years. The Group has a large and diverse base of approximately 10,000 customers, most of which are professional AV integrators and IT resellers serving sectors such as corporate, education, retail, residential and hospitality. Although the Group does not sell directly to end users, it believes that the majority of its products are used by commercial and educational establishments rather than consumers.
Initially a UK only distributor, the Group now has 493 employees across the UK, Germany, France, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand, and in the six months to 30 June 2016, 36 per cent of the Group's revenues were derived from outside the UK. A core component of the Group's growth strategy is further expansion of its international operations and footprint into strategically targeted jurisdictions.
