Midwich is a specialist audio visual distributor to the trade market with opera4ons in the UK and Ireland, France, Germany, Iberia, the Benelux and Australasia. The Group's long-standing rela4onships with over 330 vendors, including blue-chip organisa4ons such as Samsung, LG, Epson and NEC, supports a comprehensive product por9olio across major audio visual categories such as large format displays, projectors, digital signage and printers. The Group operates as the sole or largest in-country distributor for a number of its vendors in their respec4ve product sets. The Directors a;ribute this posi4on to the Group's technical exper4se, extensive product knowledge and strong customer service offering built up over a number of years. The Group has a large and diverse base of approximately 13,000 customers, most of which are professional AV integrators and IT resellers serving sectors such as corporate, educa4on, retail, residen4al and hospitality. Although the Group does not sell directly to end users, it believes that the majority of its products are used by commercial and educational establishments rather than consumers.

Ini4ally a UK only distributor, the Group now has over 750 employees across the UK, Germany, France, Ireland, Iberia, the Benelux, and Australasia. A core component of the Group's growth strategy is further expansion of its international operations and footprint into strategically targeted jurisdictions.
