("CustomVis" or "the Group")
Appointment of European Sales Representative and German Distributor
CustomVis (AIM: CUS), the leading developer, manufacturer and distributor of
solid state laser systems for the refractive surgical industry is pleased to
announce it has appointed a European Sales Representative.
German national, Thomas Zieger, has been appointed to run CustomVis's activities
in the key European region with immediate effect. Mr Zieger has almost 20 years'
experience in the refractive laser industry and has held positions at Bausch &
Lomb, Polymed and Wavelight. He founded his own distribution company, TriLas
Medical GmbH, in 2004 which has represented a number of leading ophthalmic
manufacturers. TriLas Medical GmbH has also been appointed as the CustomVis
distributor for Germany.
Europe has become a key market for CustomVis for a number of reasons:
* The installed base of refractive lasers is very high in Europe;
* Laser sales in Europe command relatively high prices;
* European countries are emerging faster from the recession than those in the
Emerging Markets, which historically have formed the Group's highest density of
sales; and
* Interest in the Pulzar Z1 laser continues to strengthen in Europe.
Dr van Saarloos commented, "As announced at the time of our recent Placing, the
appointment of a European Sales Representative was high on our agenda. Europe is
becoming one of the fastest moving regions in the world for refractive eye
surgery and CustomVis has now put in place the required elements to become a
part of this growth. Thomas's experience of our industry is extensive and we are
delighted to have him as part of the CustomVis global team. "
