Since its founding in 1984, Scandec has grown into one of Scandinavia’s foremost audio and AV distributors. Serving many of Norway’s leading venues, events, and concerts, the company represents an impressive list of leading audio and AV brands. Until now, however, one thing was missing from its lineup: high performance lighting.
At the start of 2021, Sandec filled this void in convincing fashion by becoming the exclusive Norwegian distributor of CHAUVET Professional and CHAUVET DJ products. “Lighting has been missing from our portfolio of products,” said Roar Birkeland, CEO of Scandec. “Before adding any lighting brand, we wanted to be completely certain that it offered the quality that our customers associate with the Scandec name.”
With CHAUVET Professional and CHAUVET DJ, Birkeland is confident that Scandec has found just such a brand. “The wide range, quality and reputation of Chauvet attracted us to them,” he said. “Now we are very excited to offer our customers complete solutions that include excellent lighting products.”
This enthusiasm is shared by the Chauvet team. “We couldn’t be happier to have Scandec as our exclusive distributor in Norway,” said Stéphane Gressier, International Sales Director of Chauvet. “The dedication and energy that the Scandec team brings to the table will help us build on the momentum we have established in Norway.”
Goran Dončić, Chauvet’s European Business Development Manager, echoed this view. “Scandec has a long track record of success in this industry as well as a proven commitment to providing the highest level of customer service,” he said. “This makes them very compatible with Chauvet.”
Also impressing the Chauvet team is Scandec’s commitment to pushing new ideas. On its website, the company lists “striving for innovation and improvement” as a key corporate principle. This zeal fits perfectly into the philosophy that has guided Chauvet’s outstanding growth over the past decade.
