Robe launch UK operation

Robe UK, a direct sales operation of Czech Republic-based moving light manufacturer Robe Show Lighting, has been launched.
The new company was set up to exclusively supply and market the rapidly expanding Robe brand in the UK and Republic of Ireland.
Robe UK is a joint venture between Robe Show Lighting and Ian Brown, formally MD of Coe-tech. It will be based in Northampton and run by a lively and energetic management, sales and technical team assembled by Brown.
In line with other recent development on the Robe front line, Robe UK is the latest Robe Show Lighting subsidiary to be established around the globe, flowing hot on the heels of ROBE ITALIA SRL and Robe America.
Robe UK’s Ian Brown said: “It was a logical step forward to form the new company. The last 12 months has been a really positive experience for us, supplying and installing Robe in all areas of the industry, and the new business will allow us to build on that, focussing tightly on our long-term business objectives for Robe.”
