Directus Appoints European Business Solutions (EBS) As Exclusive Partner & Distributor In Europe

Feb. 1, 2011 - PRLog -- DIRECTUS blindsided the automotive aftermarket industry with the release of the Prodigy One System at the 2010 SEMA show, winning the coveted “SEMA Best New Mobile Electronics Product” award for 2011. The Prodigy One system is the first multifunctional automotive grade device that brings navigation, safety, connectivity and entertainment into a vehicle, utilizing the capable Windows CE operating system.   The Prodigy One allows users to have navigation, media and information source installed after the vehicle has been manufactured. The system integrates easily into many OEM screens, aftermarket radios and rear camera display (RCD) systems that are standard equipment on most vehicles.   “Joining forces with EBS is another huge strategic partnership for DIRECTUS,” said CEO, Brad Chapple.  “Expanding into Europe opens up some huge doors for DIRECTUS and having a partner like EBS who has been a leader in OEM and aftermarket automotive markets in Europe is a great move for all.”

European Business Solutions has extensive automotive industry knowledge, innovation and passion for customer service. EBS focuses on the development and distribution of high-end automotive products for both OEM and aftermarket automotive customers.  EBS offers a variety of products that include:  Driver aid systems (i.e. ComfortCruise, cruise-control), intelligent head-units (i.e. Caska products), LED position lighting and complete product development consulting service.

“EBS is a company that solves problems for their customers” stated owners Sander Richardot and Hielke Ytsma. “The Prodigy One system, fits perfectly into our growth strategy for 2011 and beyond.  With many vehicles being manufactured with screens and no navigation.  With the Directus Prodigy One, the problem is solved and dealers can sell more vehicles while providing added value to their customers. “Another huge advantage of the Directus products and the Prodigy One in particular; is the opportunity to bring internet access into cars. “We expect a bright future for this way of connecting your life on the road to your business and family life” states Ytsma. “We are very happy with our cooperation with Directus and foresee a exciting road ahead for both companies.”
