On Sunday 12th September, Sutherland Drum Division manager Paul Hemming led a party of SQ2 series drum dealers to the Sonor factory near Bad Berleburg in Germany.
The purpose of the two day visit was to give the dealers, who hadn’t previously visited the facility, a greater understanding of the products and the manufacturing process. Hosted and led by joint managing director Karl-Heinz Menzel, the itinerary included a factory tour, product presentations and plenty of good hospitality.
