MEDISON'S SHIPPING COMPANY PULLS OUT OF PARTNERSHIP
By Pontus Jeppsson | PC for Alla
Medison has no contract with the company that was thought to handle
the deliveries of the 150 dollar computer. Now EMEA Services pulls out
of negotiations. "A purely commercial decision" says EMEA Services CEO
to PC for Alla.
The scandals surrounding the Medison company are becoming more
numerous. Now PC for Alla can reveal that the company doesn't have a
partner that can deliver the laptops that are being sold for 150 dollars.
On their web site, in interviews and in the press conference that was
held last week Medison have referred to the dutch company EMEA
Services. On Medisoncelebrity.com it is written "Shipping and handling
is taken care of by our partner EMEA Services with its network
reaching out over several continents".
This is not true. Tomas Ingvason is the CEO for EMEA Services, and
it's Swedish joint owner MK Electronics. To us he confirms that they
have been contacted by Medison, but that they never have written any
contracts, and will not be doing so either.
- We have been talking to Medison, but we have declined their request
to work with us, says Tomas Ingvason.
By lunchtime Tuesday EMEA Services conveyed their decision to Medison.
Tomas Ingvason will not disclose why they won't work with Medison.
- It was a purely commercial decision.
Have the recent media coverage about Medison played a part in the
decision?
- Not in principle, there were other things that were more important,
says Tomas Ingvason.
PC for Alla have tried to contact Medison's CEO Valdi Ivancic for a
comment, but without success.
