About us

History

GSM-Multimedia was founded on June 24, 1994 in Dingolfing. Initially, our focus was on flight cases and record bags, but over the years, our product range has evolved to cover the entire spectrum in the DJ and club industry, as well as expanding into the field of producing/studio equipment. 

Since our establishment in 1994, we have been serving end customers in the DJ, club, gastronomy, shopfitting, and TV/broadcast sectors, as well as resellers and installation companies. As a result, after more than 20 years, we can now rely on a pan-European distribution network and count almost all renowned DJs and professional dealers among our customers.
