Entertainment distributor Hannover House, Inc. (OTC: HHSE), will celebrate two milestone events today, as the company?s 20th anniversary corresponds to the cumulative unit sales achievement of ten-million (10,000,000) home video units.  Formed in September, 1993, Hannover House began as a book publisher, but added home video products ten years ago and now owns or controls the distribution rights to more than 180 feature films and video programs.  A historic video sales review - completed last week in compliance with ongoing audit requirements - revealed that the company?s September shipment of ?Zombie Warz? to Walmart pushed the cumulative sales for home video units to 10,004,150 (inclusive of DVD and Blu-Ray units, and until 2005, VHS videos).


 


?We are very pleased to have reached two milestones today that few independent studios ever achieve,? said Eric Parkinson, C.E.O. of Hannover House.  ?The completion of twenty years of continuous operation is both rare and notable.  But the consistent sales performance over these years, and the company?s ability to adapt to both changing market and media conditions is more meaningful to me.  Our strength has been in identifying and predicting commercial concepts and trends, and providing programming that addresses these needs.  As consumer tastes have changed, so have our titles, and as the market continues to mature, Hannover will adapt our programming to maximize success.?

?We wish to thank the wholesalers and retailers that have supported Hannover House products over the years,? Parkinson continued.  ?We also wish to thank our key suppliers, or program producers and our public company shareholders for helping us build the company into what is now one of the longest, continuously operating independent distribution labels in America.?
