In November of 1991, Niche
Video Products was incorporated to provide a
vehicle for video professionals desiring
coherent and consistent video equipment
manufacturer representation in the Southeast.
This representation was, by design, to be
different than that ordinarily provided by
traditional video equipment dealers. From the
inception of NVP, the goals were basic—to
provide effective, professional representation
on a personal contact basis. Its personnel
would possess the talent and skills necessary
to present technical products and to provide
intelligent and responsible sales and support
coverage for our products.
Over the years, our company has evolved to include both rep lines and resale lines. Our technical services have expanded to include design, installation and integration services as well as contract maintenance agreements. The overall purpose of the company has not changed—we represent select digital products to broadcast, graphics, post-production, and corporate marketplaces. We choose manufacturers who demonstrate a long-term commitment to their clients. We look for vendors who have proven strategies for developing best-in-class products and work to expand the longevity and productivity of their products.
Niche Video Products has experienced growth and expansion during the last several years, all the while maintaining financial stability–an important issue in today’s challenging business climate.
From the early beginnings of the company, our personnel have been experienced and professional. We concentrate on the mid- to high-end of the market, which is where most of our expertise is grounded. The major strength of the company lies in the extensive expertise of its personnel in the primary markets we address.
NVP offers project design and integration services led by an experienced team of experts in technical design, project management, integration, installation and documentation. From small edit suites to multi-million dollar facilities—NVP is structured to bring world-class solutions and services to our clients. Our staff includes experienced engineers, project managers and certified product specialists. In fact, experience is a strong factor in the success of NVP. This experience has been gained on a variety of fronts but the main focus has been in the sales, marketing, technical design and support of broadcast products and clients.
Niche is pleased to have been of service to so many clients and we are proud of our impressive portfolio of clients ranging from independent producers to international networks. As you can see, Niche Video Products is an excellent organization to trust as your supplier of digital video products. We have the knowledge and experience and we are here for the long run. Please feel free to call upon us whenever we can be of service to you. We would be pleased to provide client references should you wish to speak with them.
