Sommer Cable celebrates 25th anniversary
- Details
Sommer Cable GmbH was founded in 1999 by Rainer Blanck and Friedhelm Sommer. Together with friends, cable specialist Pascal Miguet, musicians, sound people, electronic engineers and event specialists, they began to develop cables and connectors which became known for their sound quality and user-friendly design.
Today, Sommer Cable stands as a premier cable manufacturer, offering a comprehensive array of products spanning the audio, video, multimedia, broadcast, and hi-fi sectors.
"The foundation of our solution competence lies in our attitude: the passion for what we do. It's ingrained in every member of our team and evident in every aspect of Sommer Cable", explains Rainer Blanck, CEO and company founder. "How do we do that? By forming a team with our employees and our customers. We turn the talents of our people into those of our company and the requirements of our customers into our own. This approach sets us apart in today's industry landscape. And that's what makes us different."
With this ethos, customer-centric approach, and expert guidance, Sommer cable today inspires customers worldwide, spanning the professional audio sector including architects, planners, studio, media, event technology professionals and, of course, musicians.
To celebrate its 25th anniversary, Sommer Cable extends its gratitude to all customers and partners with an exclusive anniversary promotion: starting in February 2024, customers will receive monthly product highlights at a special price.
From humble beginnings in a modest office with a handful of employees, the Sommer family, along with its branches and subsidiaries, has burgeoned to nearly 90 team members, with offices in France, the USA, and most recently, Spain.
The company has witnessed numerous milestones throughout its history, from significant projects like relocating to the current premises on Humboldtstraße in 2004 to the transformation of the small parts warehouse into the automated Autostore in 2017. Another major project is also on the agenda this year with the relaunch of its online store. Sommer cable will be on stand B33 / Hall 12.1 at Prolight + Sound 2024.
