Calumet UK and Wex Photographic will officially merge tomorrow
Two of the biggest photography retailers in the UK are going to officially merge tomorrow. This marks the culmination of a process that was set in motion way back in March when Calumet owner (and former Bowens owner) Aurelius bought Wex Photographic and announced that the Calumet competitor would merge with its former adversary.
If you visit the Calumet UK website today, you're greeted by the following message:
"From 26 September, Calumet Photographic Limited UK will be merging with Wex Photographic, offering an improved experience and wider range of products to photographers across the UK," reads the statement. "Later this week, this website will be closed and moved to www.wexphotographic.com."
The statement goes on to assure Calumet customers that there will be "minimal disruption" to service, and any outstanding pre-orders, back-orders, or vouchers will be honored under the new brand.
For more information about the merger and how it will (or won't) affect customers, you can visit this FAQ page on the Wex Photographic website.
