Lawton creates the Home Electronics division
Lawton strengthens its distributor position
Published:  18 January, 2008

Lawton has strengthened its distributor's position within the independent retail sector with the creation of Lawton Home Electronics division.  With Lawton's accessory trade growing at over 30% year-on-year, Lawton HE has been created to develop the expanding audio and video hardware side of the business.

This now includes distribution of selected Teac, Onkyo and Acoustic Energy products as well as exclusive independent distribution of Vita Audio and Shure earphones. Lawton's customers have immediate access to both the Lawton and Lawton HE portfolios with the benefit of the lowest minimum order in the trade and guaranteed next day delivery. Lawton HE will be run as a division of Lawton to maximise logistics and allow dedicated staff to focus on particular sectors of the trade.

Neil Drain, MD at Lawton, commented: “Lawton HE is an exciting development in Lawton's ongoing expansion and we are building a select portfolio of high-quality, complementary AV brands. Not only does it give our independent retail customers access to these major players without the need for large stock holding investment, it also offers our partnering manufacturers unrivalled exposure to the high street trade.”
