Brazil. Christie welcomed the decision of its partner IAVI, to expand its business in Latin America with the opening of new offices in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The new facility supports the rapid growth of Christie's business in the region since the opening of the new South American branch in 2013, in Sao Paulo.
Since 1997, IAVI has been a major source of AV products for professionals in more than 75 countries. Headquartered in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, the company has created long-lasting strategic partnerships with leading manufacturers around the world, offering the widest range of ultra-portable, high-performance projectors and flat panel displays, showcasing leading professional brands in the industry including Christie.
Obren Milutinovic, IAVI Sales Director, commented: "The opening of the new facilities is critical because it allows us to offer our Brazilian customers more personalized attention and an excellent customer service experience. The city of Sao Paulo is an important center of the Brazilian business market and we see great growth potential in Brazil."
Clayton Brito, Christie's country manager in Brazil, said, "IAVI is a dynamic distributor of our projectors and flat screens, which is applied in fixed installations, staging and the rental sector. We hope that this company will allow us to develop the professional audiovisual business in Brazil and South America, while ensuring that all customers receive more professional service and support. Together we have already achieved encouraging results in the region, such as the recent installation of a Christie Mirage 4K25 projector at the Federal University of Pernambuco, in Recife (Brazil)."
