HHB USA Appoints New President, Moves To Larger Facility

HHB USA has announced a move from West Los Angeles to larger office and warehousing facilities in Simi Valley, CA. The relocation is necessitated as HHB expands its own product offering to include HHB CD recorders, recording media, tube processors and location recorders, and adds to a portfolio of exclusively distributed lines which already includes Ashdown Engineering, Kamesan, Lynx, Quantec, Rosendahl and TL Audio.

HHB USA's move to larger premises coincides with the appointment of a new President, Doug Schwartz. Taking over from David Beesley who returns to the UK, Schwartz is an experienced audio industry professional serving time in retail and as an independent rep before establishing his own highly successful professional audio and video accessory company, Pacific Supply and Trading Co. Schwartz now assumes dual roles as President of both companies.

Commenting on the news, outgoing HHB USA President David Beesley said, "It was always planned that I would return to the UK once HHB was firmly established here in the US. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our customers for five very happy years in the US, and to wish Doug every success in guiding HHB USA through its next exciting period of development."

For his part, incoming HHB USA President Doug Schwartz said "I've admired HHB's progress for more than a decade and have known the people involved for some years now. Naturally I relish the opportunity to become part of such an innovative organisation and look forward to helping HHB achieve even greater success here in the US."
