Pirate3D had sold its products directly worldwide through its Kickstarter program and subsequently through their ecommerce site pirate3d.com. At the start of 2015, with fulfillment of its Kickstarter obligations underway, Pirate3D began looking for distributors worldwide.
“Teaming with specialist retailors not only allows us to reach more re-sellers, they also represent a hub for community building in the various regions we sell to,” said Brendan Goh, COO for Pirate3D. “We want the best possible service for our customers and realized the most convenient way for them is to have a local point of contact. We receive requests from retailers about working with us and understand the benefits of tying up retail with distributors who have had years of experience in the 3D printing market. It’s a very exciting time as we see a higher level of adoption by consumers which is our primary market space.”
Under the new agreement Digital3D will distribute Pirate3D products, which include the award-winning Buccaneer 3D Printer and Pirate3D Filaments. Pirate3D printer apps are easily available for download on iTunes and Google Play.
“We believe that working with Digital3D will help further our mission of bringing 3D printers to homes through an easy to use and highly reliable 3D printer, quality prints and interesting content,” said Roger Chang, CEO of Pirate3D.
The reseller and distribution agreement between Pirate3D and Digital3D begins immediately. Digital3D is expected to be stocked and ready to resell Pirate3D products by June.
