  • Feb 16, 2016

Hikvision® Canada, a leader in innovative video surveillance products and solutions, is pleased to announce that the company has been named Vendor of the Year by ADI Global Distribution, a leading global wholesale distributor of security and low voltage products. Hikvision Canada was established in 2015 to serve the needs of Hikvision’s quickly growing customer base in the country.

ADI recognizes key manufacturers annually in North America for their contributions towards ADI’s success. The Vendor of the Year Award was presented to Hikvision Canada thanks to the organization’s superior support in sales and marketing.  Hikvision was also recognized for its outstanding responsiveness when it comes to corporate and field level support. Finally, Hikvision’s consistent devotion to operational excellence has been second to none throughout the year. Hikvision’s strong partnership with ADI in Canada is a testament to their investment in the Canadian market.

“As a distributor our vendor partnerships are vital to our success,” said Marco Cardazzi, Vice President of Marketing North America at ADI. “Hikvision’s dedication to excellence in service at all levels is a testament to the values we hold highly at ADI and we are proud to honor and celebrate their contributions and achievements.”

“Our growth in Canada has been phenomenal the past few years thanks to some very solid partnerships.  ADI is without a doubt a very big part of that success,” remarked Gordon Lang, director, strategic partners at Hikvision USA.

Hikvision Canada experienced phenomenal growth in 2015, with a new home office in Quebec, local bilingual technical support, and a local channel support manager. These resources, which will continue to grow throughout 2016, help solidify the partnership between Hikvision and their distribution partners in Canada.

Jeffrey He, president of Hikvision USA and Hikvision Canada, elaborated upon the global relationship Hikvision has with ADI.

“The partnership we initially created with ADI in North America has now become global in nature. We are excited to continue that strong partnership in North America and extend that to shared markets overseas. We are honored to receive Vendor of the Year as acknowledgement of our successes in Canada, and we are confident that 2016 will be an even more fruitful year."

Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
