FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
11 February 2009
Battlefront Miniatures Ltd of Auckland, New Zealand is pleased to announce that we have purchased Gale Force Nine, LLC.
John Kovaleski, CEO/Founder of Gale Force Nine writes “We at Gale Force Nine (GF9) are very excited about the new opportunities that this partnership represents. By becoming part of the Battlefront Family, GF9 will have access to new distribution channels, production capabilities and R&D resources years ahead of what we might be able to do on our own. We look forward to continuing our rapid growth in our role as the premier gaming accessory developer and manufacture for the hobby game industry.”
“I could not be happier that John and his team have joined with ours and I know that despite the obvious business advantages combining the two groups of dedicated hobby enthusiasts gives us both an added boost to allow us to achieve even greater things. The two operations will see little initial impact in the short term, as we already have our supply chains linked in Europe and Australasia. As new projects and future plans come on line, the two operations we will be making some changes to adapt to the expanded business model,” says John-Paul Brisigotti, Managing Director of Battlefront Miniatures.
Gale Force Nine will continue making all the great products which the world has come to know. We also have a lot of exciting new projects which will be announced soon.
