Absen, a world leader in LED screen technology, has announced the addition of xplace to its Value-Added Partner (VAP) network. The agreement, which makes xplace into a ‘Golden’ VAP and secures a promising relationship, was signed by the two parties at the retail trade fair, EuroShop, where Absen Europe featured the award-winning retail specific N Series and HDV Series on its stand.
Absen Europe’s Value Added Partners (VAPs) include only the most highly trusted and experienced resellers, distributors and integrators. VAPs officially promote Absen LED products and the Absen brand. Within this partnership, in return for sales, marketing and technical support xplace, as a Golden VAP will be able to offer training on Absen products to end users.
Headquartered in Gottingen, Germany, with subsidiaries reaching across Europe, xplace is a well-established specialist supplier and installer of interactive customer information and digital signage solutions at POS. As an Absen Value Added Partner, xplace will extend Absen’s reach through its own network opportunities achieved through quality of service and solid customer support.
Commenting on the appointment, Arne Jürgensen, CEO of xplace enthused: “As a Value Added Partner of Absen Europe, we will get direct support from the manufacturer. The quality and the flexibility of the Absen VAP-Network, in addition to the Absen portfolio, convinced us to become a Golden VAP.”
Absen managing director for Europe & Oceania, Ruben Rengel, commented, “Absen prides itself on developing the very best partner network in the markets it supports. The addition of xplace as Absen’s newest value added partner will be a significant move in the retail marketplace.
Absen provides a free training program, Absen’s Advanced Certified Engineers programme (ACE), for all its VAP technicians. The ACE Training has commenced for xplace, with technicians having already achieved certification at Absen Europe’s HQ last month.
