From the outset, the demand for a specialised and independent sound and communication distribution company in Southern Africa was of utmost importance if we were to maximise the penetration of product. In 2004 we added audio visual and lighting equipment so that we would be able to provide the same service for other products. Our aim was, and is, to "Join People and Products" providing the vital link between manufacturer and our targeted client base.

The Foundations and Goals of the company are:
Intimate Product Knowledge
Understanding of Application
Strong Service and Back Up
Unfaltering clearly defined objectives
Infectious enthusiasm and passion along with an honest desire to listen to the needs of the client

Our dealer network is hardworking and has focussed attention on their specific discipline and/or geographical location. The following is representative of the three main dealer types we target-:
Corporate, Contracting and Consulting companies who advise, quote, purchase and install Pro-Audio/Video/Lighting and communication product for use in architectural spaces such as hotels, boardrooms, conference centres, stadiums, Houses of Worship etc.;
Rental, of which there are many independent companies in Southern Africa;
Retail, which is a growing and productive market in Southern Africa.

Tadco has the expertise to design and project manage multi function complex audio, lighting, video and control systems, assisting our dealer base at every step of the way.

There is no such thing as either a perfect person or a perfect Company - only perfect intentions. We are excited, committed and determined to provide quality product and service, with defined objectives, in a happy, friendly atmosphere, reliant on long-term mutually beneficial relationships. Our hopes are that our relationship with our clients is such that they will tell us when mistakes occur.

Tadco represents a non-conflicting range of quality products, which we feel are able to assist the audio, video and lighting industry in many ways.
