“Over the years we’ve worked with Martin and several other distribution partners in the U.S.,” said Rainer Blanck, CEO of Sommer cable Germany. “When we decided to open our own North American subsidiary, we chose Martin as CEO because as a dual German/American citizen and with his extensive experience in building successful distribution businesses in Germany and the U.S., he was the ideal candidate. As the head of our new Sommer cable America team he will assure excellent customer relationships and long-term continuity.”

Jim Pace, owner and president of Los Angeles-based Audio Intervisual Design and plus24, added, “Martin has been a great asset in the growth of plus24. We are now looking forward to working with him in his new role as strategic business consultant for plus24 and CEO of Sommer cable America. Sommer has been a longtime vendor for our companies and also distributes our Brainstorm Electronics products line in Europe.”
