We have worked alongside Stefan Boop and Matthias Deter for many years and they currently distribute Inspecs products as well as their own licensed brands Comma and ZWO," Robin Totterman, CEO of Inspecs, said in a company news release. “This acquisition continues our strategy of developing strategic distribution of our products to both chain and independent opticians around the world. We look forward to further synergies and working with the dynamic team at BoDe in the future.”
