Keslow Camera to Acquire Sim Camera, Expand Presence in Canadian Market
CULVER CITY, Calif, March 24, 2023 /CNW/ - Keslow Camera, the largest privately-held motion picture camera equipment rental house in North America, is announcing its forthcoming acquisition of Sim Camera, one of Canada's leading camera rental companies with offices in Vancouver, Toronto, and North Bay.
This merger will bring significant benefits to Keslow Camera and Sim's clients, including access to an expanded range of equipment and support from seasoned industry professionals.
Robert Keslow, CEO of Keslow Camera, commented on the acquisition: "We're very excited to integrate Sim into Keslow Camera. This move will strengthen our presence in the Canadian market and provide an even greater selection of cutting-edge equipment and expertise to our clients. With the combined resources of both companies, we look forward to empowering Canada's most talented filmmakers to realize their creative visions."
The acquisition is a proud moment for Keslow, who founded the company in 1990 where he ran the business out of his single-car garage after seeing a gap in the services available for creators.
"Our market strategy has always been to grow intelligently." offered Keslow, "This opportunity to improve our customer offering, add depth to our amazing team, and gain Canadian market share is a milestone on our journey to foster creativity and innovation in filmmaking."
Sim CEO Scott Dorsey is very optimistic about the prospects for the combined team going forward: "Our clients have always expected the best from us, and we've worked hard to deliver it. Joining the Keslow Camera family is a natural next step in the evolution of what Rob Sim started in his basement some 45 years ago to provide the best service to the creative industry. The combination of both these exceptional teams will be a North American leader."
As a result of this acquisition, Sim's assets, expertise, and resources will be integrated into Keslow Camera. Clients from both firms will continue to enjoy top-tier service, support, and solutions from the Keslow Camera name in Vancouver, Toronto, and beyond. Closing of the acquisition is expected to occur on March 31, 2023
