Jupiter_prdirect_2Jupiter Images has announced that it has acquired all of the shares of PR Direct SAS a small Royalty Free Distributor in France. PR Direct was already producing sales with many of the Jupiter brands and the main benefit seems to be that Jupiter now owns the local distributor and will no longer split the revenue. "The acquisition of the business and sales operations of PR Direct further aids in solidifying JupiterImages' position in the important French image market," stated Alan M. Meckler, Chairman and CEO of Jupitermedia Corporation. "PR Direct already distributes a number of our royalty-free brands so this was a natural acquisition for us. PR Direct's sales operations complement our existing operations [goodshoot] in France and will enable further expansion of our JupiterImages business throughout Europe." Terms of the acquisition have not been disclosed.
