The Vitec Group supplies a wide range of equipment and services to the broadcasting, entertainment and photographic industries.
Its products are distributed in nearly 100 countries, either through dealerships or direct to the end user or corporate customer. Vitec is based on strong, well known, premium brands that professionals rely on. Vitec is organised in three divisions: Photographic, Broadcast Systems and Broadcast Services.
Strategy: ‘Consolidate – Leverage – Grow’
Vitec’s strategy is to grow ever closer to its end customer, providing them with better tools and services to do their job, while at the same time looking for complementary areas into which the Group can expand and utilise its industry-leading expertise. After an initial phase which yielded economies of scale, during which multiple locations and smaller business units were consolidated into a divisional structure, the focus shifted to leveraging our skills to develop new products and exploit our routes to market. This phase of the strategy is now delivering meaningful growth.
