Roberts Distributors, LP enters into US Distribution Partnership with Negative Supply
Indianapolis, Indiana, November 27, 2019: Roberts Distributors, LP., a premier photo specialty retail, e-commerce and distribution company based in Indianapolis, is very excited to announce their newest partner, Negative Supply, to their photo specialty distribution division.
As Roberts continues their focus on the analog photography community, they are thrilled to partner with Negative Supply as their exclusive distributor for the United States. Saxon McClamma, CEO and Director of Design for Negative Supply expressed that, “Negative Supply is extremely happy to be working with Roberts Distributors, a household name in the film photography industry. By working through their retail channels, we are excited to share camera scanning with a wider audience, including in retail stores and with hands-on demos around the country. We truly believe camera scanning is the future of film digitalization and are confident it will help lead to a global increase in at-home developing and processing.” Director of Sales for Roberts Distributors, Joshua Steele, added, “We are excited to be bringing Negative Supply to the photo retail channel. As we continue to see film sales spike, labs, retailers, institutions and end-users are all recognizing a serious need for a high resolution and efficient scanning solution that is not reliant on decades old hardware or software. We are convinced that digitizing with a camera is the workflow for the future. Negative Supply is focused on optimizing that solution and their first products are game changers.”
Roberts opened their photo specialty distribution division in 2018 with global partner, HARMAN technology. They have continued to steadily grow their distribution partners, which now include ILFORD Photo, Kentmere, Paterson, Kodak Alaris, 7Artisans, ars-imago, Dubblefilm, Solarcan, Kono and Yodica films.
Roberts Distributors, LP celebrated its 62nd year in business this past August. “We feel that our years of experience in the photo specialty retail space and our deep understanding of shipping and logistics through our current e-commerce channels makes us the best choice to service our distribution customers with products like the ones Negative Supply creates. We understand the photo specialty channel, as well as the growth in analog products and the importance of getting it all right” explained General Partner, Bruce Pallman.
