Suresnes, France, 10 May 2012 - Serious Factory, one of the major editors of 3D technology digital applications for marketing and sales, has signed a VAR (Value Added Reseller) partnership with AHS, which specialises in providing the Japanese market with marketing software. This strategic agreement relates to the marketing of all Serious Factory solutions on the Japanese market.

This partnership with AHS is part of Serious Factory’s indirect sales strategy and reflects the editor’s desire to increase its market shares abroad. Now it has a solid customer base in Europe, Serious Factory is positioning itself to take on the Japanese market.

Founded in 2005 and specialising in marketing for the Japanese market, AHS is the Japanese distributor for a number of international software companies.

We have signed a strong partnership with AHS to provide large local companies with intuitive, efficient and cost-effective 3D marketing software," comments William PERES, CEO of Serious Factory.

"AHS has a long history of introducing great technologies from outside of Japan to the Japanese market.
