Légère Reeds is joining the Music Center family. Légère Reeds Ltd. is now wholly owned by Music Centre S.r.l.
This change marks an exciting new chapter in Légère’s storied history. Founded in 1998, the company began in the modest basement of Guy Légère’s family home in Barrie, Canada. The first reeds were cut slowly, one at a time on a hand-built CNC machine. Today, Légère’s 35 highly skilled staff work together to produce hundreds of thousands of reeds each year in our 10,000 sq ft state-of-the-art production facility.
While this decision is a significant milestone in our journey, we want to assure everyone that the essence of what makes Légère Reeds a trusted name remains unchanged. Our commitment to innovation and delivering consistent, quality products to our customers remains our top priority.
So, why this change? Légère has been the fastest growing reed brand in the industry for more than a decade. But we still have a long way to go to reach our goal of being the number one reed brand in the world. Joining hands with Music Center delivers the resources, network, and reach needed to take our growth to the next level.
Music Center shares our vision, and they believe in our mission. You can expect to see an even stronger emphasis on research and development, increased support for our artists and distributors, and enhanced customer engagement. We’re also ramping up our capital expenditures to fuel these initiatives.
