“Richmond Film Services is a big name in the pro-audio world and this
sale is an unparalleled opportunity to acquire some of the highest
standard pro-audio equipment that we have ever seen come on to the
second-hand market. The equipment has been maintained to extremely high
standards and this is a testament to the tireless work of Nigel Woodford
and his team over the many years the company has been in operation. The
sale of the assets represents a rare chance for users to not only grab a
piece of British pro-audio history but provide themselves with
the capabilities to go after the business that will no longer be
fulfilled by this company,” said Nick Taylor, Senior Vice President,
Liquidity Services.
“After a long and illustrious career in the pro-audio equipment rental
industry, Nigel Woodford is retiring and the decision has been made to
sell the assets of the company. We selected Liquidity Services because
of their unrivalled international Audio-Visual and Broadcast buyer base
which has been bolstered from the multiple major broadcast sales
undertaken by the company over Summer 2018. Liquidity Services has been
impressed by the high standard of our equipment, and this is one of the
key reasons our client list has included major film productions and
iconic British cultural and sporting events,” said Emma Morrison,
Richmond Film Services.
