Founded in 1972, JAM Industries Ltd. began operating in Montreal under the trade name of Erikson Music, and through the 1970’s, witnessed the rapid growth of this Quebec-based company. In the 1980’s JAM Industries widened its scope. In addition to Erikson Music, JAM acquired the Korg Canada line, and created the Erikson Pro Audio division, which allowed greater focus on important market areas. In April 1986, JAM Industries purchased full assets of Coast Wholesale Music Ltd. and proceeded to transform this Western Canadian company from a regional distributor into a full-fledged national marketing and sales force, thus ensuring that JAM had full National distribution of all of its products. In the 1990’s, building on established strengths, the company expanded. It split the Erikson Pro Audio division into two unique divisions, and dove into the lighting market, distributing Martin Professional Lighting products in Canada. Additionally, JAM Industries made its foray into the consumer electronics field with the creation of the Erikson Consumer division. The early 2000s brought a new dimension to the Canadian company, with the addition and acquisition of various sister companies in the Untied States: American Music & Sound, US Music Corp, American Audio & Video and Ashly Audio. Following a consistent upward curve, JAM's growth and diversification continues to strengthen its position in the marketplace, providing a resourceful, reliable, and innovative distribution network. Exertis is part of DDC plc, a FTSE 100 company.
