Rent-to-own News - D&H has the TVs and appliances to meet Super Bowl party needs

Rental Items like LED and 3D HDTVs, Wine Fridges, Elaborate Drink Blenders and More Round-out an Extensive Portfolio for Renters Who are Looking to Throw a Super Bowl Blow-Out —

Football fans across the country will soon be gearing-up for Super Bowl XLV on February 6.  North American computer and consumer electronics distributor D&H Distributing offers a full portfolio of products that end-customers can rent to satisfy their year-long cravings for high definition sports, including a Super Bowl bash with all the electronic gadgetry they can handle. 

D&H not only carries a broad selection of high-def 3D, LED and LCD television displays for RTO store owners and dealers, but the distributor is also a one-stop-shop for a roster of other electronics.  These range from touch screen tablet PCs that let viewers check the scores of the big games, to pre-show gaming consoles, to home theater systems and small appliances.

3D TVs, which have been churning up new interest at this month’s CES (Consumer Electronics Show) expo, have the potential to increase their prominence in the RTO market in 2011.  While LED and LCD TVs are the current RTO industry standard, 3D is set to gain serious yardage in 2011 due to greater availability, growing market share and diminishing price points. 

D&H recommends that RTO dealers and store owners cross-market other electronics and appliances to help customers outfit their homes — not just game day, but for the whole year.  For instance, Panasonic’s 1000W Blu-ray Home Theater System helps bring the roar of the crowd right into the customer’s living room, for the Super Bowl or for any other sporting event.  “Kegerators,” refrigerators and beverage centers by Haier help contain a multitude of those all-important celebratory refreshments.  And the Sunbeam Theater-Style Popcorn Maker stand provides an ever-popular stadium snack with theatrical flair. 

For pre-game entertainment, Blu-ray disc players like the Yamaha BD-S1065 offer spectacular clarity.  Or renters can play their own Super Bowl on Electronic Arts’ Madden NFL 11 for the Microsoft Xbox 360, the Sony PlayStation 3 or Nintendo Wii gaming consoles before, during or after the game. 

All of these items and thousands of others are available through D&H, making it easy for RTO clients to offer multi-product packages.  “We’re always looking to help our RTO dealers generate greater sales, and the Super Bowl is a perfect opportunity to get excited consumers to bring home items they may not consider at other times of the year,” said John Alifano, director of D&H’s Consumer Products Division.  “At a moment like this, when new technologies like 3D and LED are creating a great buzz in the market, store owners can take advantage and turn that curiosity into new, long-term business.”

As the nation’s leading technology distributor, D&H provides a wealth of resources to empower the RTO dealer and store owner, delivering a broad selection of categories, products and applications.
With an impressive 93-year history, the company prides itself on creating business partnerships with an astute focus on ease-of-doing-business, relationships, value, performance and service.  D&H ships out of five separate locations in North America, including its US headquarters in Harrisburg and its Canadian headquarters in Mississauga, Ontario.
