October 17, 2017, Elgin, IL – K40 Electronics announced it will offer direct purchase of its products to independent mobile electronics retailers in Canada.

Following A Proven Path of Success

Like most consumer electronics manufacturers, K40 Electronics utilized the distribution channel for many years to deliver its products to Canadian retailers. “We’ve blazed new trails in serving retailers and have defined the attributes that make up a personal vendor/retailer relationship in the US market, so we asked ourselves, “why aren’t we doing the same thing in the Canadian market?” said Rachel Clark, K40’s VP of Sales and Marketing.

A Relationship with Tangible 24/7 Benefits

When a retailer becomes an Authorized Dealer, K40 provides an extensive list of benefits and programs to ensure success in the radar/laser category:

• Protected profit margins with enforced MAP.

• Protected distribution with no big box accounts, consumer direct sales, or third party resale sites allowed.

• All components are tested prior to shipping to ensure an industry-leading, less than ½% warranty return rate.

• A diverse product line with variable pricing to fit any consumer budget.

We were sincerely humbled that our passion in serving others was recognized by industry peers when they chose K40 Electronics as Vendor of the Year at KnowledgeFest.”
