SAO PAULO, Brazil – Robert Juliat named Lighting Bits Ltda its exclusive distributor for Brazil. Headed by Daniel Ridano, Lighting Bits Ltda will also share the broader Latin American market with other Robert Juliat distributors. Ridano has been involved in the theatre scene since 1995, and has installed lighting equipment into the Teatro Argentino de La Plata for Robert Juliat's Argentinian dealer. "The quality and reliability of Robert Juliat fixtures is unique," he said. "Robert Juliat is a dream product in any project where quality is a must. In addition to this, the technical and project support offered by the Robert Juliat team is superb."
Lighting Bits exhibited Robert Juliat fixtures – Cyrano 2500W HMI, Victor 1800W MSR and Buxie 575W MSD followspots and the full range of RJ zoom profile spots – for the first time in September 2010 at the Lighting Week trade fair in Sao Paulo.
"The response was fantastic," said Ridano. "Visitors to the show were at first surprised, and then very excited that, at last, they are able to get Robert Juliat lighting equipment in Brazil. Even those who were not familiar with RJ could immediately recognize the quality of these premium products against those commonly available in Brazil.
"To represent such a range, one must be prepared to back it up with the high level of support and customer service," Ridano added. "This is something which we take very seriously at Lighting Bits as our portfolio of manufacturers can testify."
"We chose Daniel because he possesses a sharp knowledge of the Latin American market, has a lot of experience in the theatre environment and a high degree of professionalism – all invaluable qualities for supporting Robert Juliat's customers in this region," said Lionel Garraud, sales director for Robert Juliat.
