ActionSportGames och Classic Army avslutar samarbetet
Den första januari avslutar ActionSportGames och tillverkaren Classic Army samarbetet med varandra, efter tio år. Därmed slutar ASG att vara distributör av CAs produkter i Sverige och flera andra länder. CA får inte längre tillverka vapen som ASG äger licens för (beroende på licens så upphör avtalen 1 januari eller 30 juni).
I stället så kommer ASG att fokusera på sina egna produkter och varumärken. CA kommer fortsättningsvis att ha möjlighet att tillverka och sälja vapenmodellerna (bortsett logotyperna) men ej kunna sälja i Europa eller USA då ASG äger licenserna och ensamrätten till föräljning av dessa modeller i nämnda världsdelar.
Så här står det i pressmeddelandet från ASG:
After many years of partnership ActionSportGames® A/S (ASG) and Classic Army have decided to end their cooperation from January 1st, 2013.
By this date ASG will no longer act as distributor of Classic Army airsoft products.
ASG will sell its remaining stock of Classic Army airsoft products as soon as possible, and will keep servicing Classic Army products bought through ASG.
The sub-license cooperation between ASG and Classic Army concerning ArmaLite, Arsenal, B&T, D.S. Arms and Steyr Mannlicher also terminates by January 1st, 2013. This means that from this date Classic Army is no longer authorized by ASG to utilize the brands and trademarks mentioned above, and these licensed airsoft products can hereafter only be legally obtained through ASG and its network of distributors.
Further, the sub-license agreement between ASG and Classic Army regarding Concern Izhmash airsoft products ends by June 30, 2013. By this date Classic Army holds no sub-licenses authorized by ASG or any of its licensors.
From January 1st, 2013 ASG will be focusing exclusively on developing, promoting and pushing its own brands and its portfolio of licensed products.
Since ASG holds the worldwide exclusive licenses to replicate the firearms and components of ArmaLite, Arsenal, B&T, D.S. Arms, Steyr Mannlicher and Concern Izhmash, ASG will keep distributing these licensed airsoft products worldwide.
