Take 2 Lighting has provided solutions for a number of high profile broadcast productions such as Lewis, New Tricks and Midsomer Murders, acquired the assets from ELP to scale up its operations and boost the lighting division of their business.
The rental company already has a number of lighting assets to complement its production portfolio, but needed to scale up its inventory to respond to increased demand for a complete production solution from its customer base In need of quick finance to take advantage of favourable market conditions, Take 2 turned to Azule whose specialist understanding of the media and broadcast industry meant that it was able to quickly secure finance for the deal.
Glyn Edridge, managing director of Take 2, commented, "By arranging finance quickly through Azule we were able to rapidly scale up our lighting inventory. The acquisition has enabled us to grow our lighting arm, Take 2 Lighting, and offer our customers a complete production solution in live production and cinematic environments."
Azule's sales director, Gavin Scott said, "The current climate has meant that it is increasingly important for rental companies to respond to the needs of their customer base and diversify their services. Take 2 is leading the way in providing its customers with complete rental solutions."
