Quantel name McMillan as UK distributor

Quantel have announced the appointment of McMillan as UK distributor for the company’s full line of generationQ broadcast, post and graphics systems.
McMillan will work alongside Quantel’s direct salesforce, extending the reach of Quantel’s sales and support network to every region of the UK and Ireland at every level of the market.
Quantel's UK and Eire Sales Manager, Russell Barlow, said: “We are delighted to have McMillan on board. They have an in-depth knowledge of the industry and excellent coverage of the UK and Ireland. We see McMillan as an extension of our own salesforce, and will be giving them the same level of sales, marketing and customer service support as we already afford to our own people.”
Quantel Sales Director, Martin Mulligan, said: “The new generationQ range of products takes us into a much broader market than we can sensibly support with just our existing people. We are also actively looking to form similar alliances in other territories around the world, and I expect to be making further announcements as soon as we identify suitable partners.”
McMillan Sales Director, Mark Forth, said: “In both the post and broadcast sectors, the squeeze is really on to get more performance and faster results on tighter budgets. Quantel’s generationQ product range offers the scalability and team-working efficiencies that the industry is looking for. We’re looking forward to bringing these unique products to the market.”
Quantel is dedicated to creating solutions for a variety of media from terrestrial and satellite television to broadband Internet, DVD and d-cinema.
McMillan has 13 regional branches across the UK supporting the supply of hire of broadcast, post-production and AV presentation equipment.
