Expanding its regional footprint and strengthening its presence in the GCC, Thomsun has opened the doors to its new showroom in Muscat, Oman. The showroom primarily highlights solutions from Yamaha and NEXO, including professional audio products and musical instruments. It also features additional brands Powersoft, Røde and Speechi. Having already established operations in Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Qatar, Thomsun identified Oman as a growing market with increasing demand for professional and commercial AV solutions. The new facility aims to supports this growth, as well as bolster the company’s distribution agreement with Yamaha. The official opening ceremony was attended by senior representatives of Yamaha and NEXO, including Kunihiro Niwa, managing director of Yamaha Music Gulf; Gareth Collyer, sales and marketing director at NEXO; and Alain Boone, NEXO’s sales manager for MEA and India. Thomsun’s own leadership team were also present, including director Biju Thomas and general manager Davis Varkey. Approximately 25 guests attended the initial showroom launch, which was followed by an evening networking event at the nearby Mercure Muscat hotel that welcomed around 60 guests. Highlights of the evening included a live demo of the NEXO ID14 speaker, which received high praise from attendees for its performance. While the facility will primarily function as a product showroom and service centre, Thomsun said it plans to support the Oman market more broadly with additional events and training sessions held elsewhere in the region.
