MANCHESTER, England — MaxBox Digital Retail Ltd., a provider of leisure, entertainment and retail kiosks, has announced a partnership that makes Advanced Integrated Systems in Jamaica as exclusive distributors for the Caribbean. Advanced Leisure already has placed its first order for 300 kiosks, according to a news release.
The three year distribution deal gives the company exclusive rights for distribution of MaxBox digital retail kiosks and all of its applications across the whole of the Caribbean.
AIS initially will focus on Jamaica to deploy the first order of 300 MaxBox kiosks, capitalizing on the long-standing links they already have with Jamaican companies across all business sectors, including government, retail, tourism and banking. They then plan to expand into other parts of the Caribbean.
The AIS project team from Jamaica will join MaxBox in Cheshire in September for an intensive training and development session on software/hardware and application development and marketing of the MaxBox.
"We are very excited about achieving the official exclusive distributorship in the Caribbean for MaxBox," said Stacey Halsall-Peart, chief operating officer for AIS. "We firmly believe that with our existing government, tourism, banking and retail clients, AIS will be able to offer another great solution to our clients for either sales or data capture. AIS specialise in putting together IT solutions and MaxBox now gives the opportunity for communication directly with the consumer, not just business to business. The initial order of 300 kiosks will get us started with our immediate clients, but we can really see this taking off in the Caribbean and hope to have 500 placed before Christmas."
