Primera Technology, Inc. Launches Primera Asia Pacific



    Primera Technology, Inc., a leading developer and manufacturer of
    CD, DVD and Blu-ray(TM) disc publishing equipment and color label
    printers, today announced that it is expanding its global reach with
    the opening of a new Asia Pacific sales and support office in Hong
    Kong.

    Primera Asia Pacific will be led by Callum Hingston, Managing
    Director. Mr. Hingston has previously sold Primera's products as an
    Authorized Distributor for nine years. In his new role, he and his
    staff will be providing sales and support for Primera's distribution
    partners and end-user customers throughout the Asia Pacific region. A
    local warehouse has also been established to provide immediate access
    to Primera's full range of equipment, consumable supplies and spare
    parts.

    Primera Asia Pacific's primary markets will include Australia, New
    Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, China, Taiwan, Thailand, South Korea and
    Indonesia.

    "We have sold our products throughout Asia Pacific for almost a
    decade," said Mark D. Strobel, Vice President of Sales and Marketing
    at Primera. "But in the past several years, our business in the region
    has grown substantially. We believe the time is right to make this
    substantial investment and commitment to our customers in these
    rapidly expanding markets."

    Primera Europe, located in Wiesbaden, Germany, is responsible for
    sales and support of Primera's customers in Europe and Scandinavia. It
    has been in operation for seven years. The establishment of Primera
    Asia Pacific adds to Primera's commitment in the global market to
    respond to customer needs.

    "Primera's Bravo-Series CD/DVD and Blu-ray disc publishers and
    LX-Series Color Label Printers are already the best-selling and most
    recognized brand in the world," said Callum Hingston, Managing
    Director of Primera Asia Pacific. "Now, our Authorized Distributors
    and end-users in Asia Pacific will benefit even more with localized
    product availability, lower shipping costs and a dedicated customer
    service staff that is available in the same or similar time zones."
