Vivreau has appointed BevServ as sole distributor of its range of mains-fed drinking water systems in Ireland.

“We are particularly pleased that Vivreau has chosen to work with us in Ireland,” said BevServ Managing Director, Brian Rogers. “The Vivreau brand is very well-established in the UK, and the company has considerable expertise being one of the first companies to develop the mains-fed market nearly 20 years ago.

“Vivreau’s Table Water Bottling System is used in approximately 55% of the top 100 companies in the UK. With such a strong brand heritage, we’re confident we can generate huge interest from Facilities Managers and specifiers looking for design-led, cost-effective systems that offer green benefits. With the newly launched VR3000 and V2O systems, plus other new products in the pipeline, we are very much looking forward to developing the Irish market over the coming months.”

Vivreau Managing Director Stephen Charles added: “The economic boom in Ireland has created a significant increase in property development. Our products are often specified during a new build or property refurbishment, so this is helping to fuel an increased demand for Vivreau systems.

“Although we have successfully supplied the Irish market from our UK base for many years, appointing our own distributor in Dublin will have significant advantages for customers, including fast access to a local specialist who can provide expert guidance on all aspects of choosing and using Vivreau systems. It’s a very positive move for us and we have complete confidence in Brian, who is keen to bring the Vivreau brand to a much wider audience.”

Established in the late 1980s, Vivreau offers a range of purified drinking water systems, including under counter, tabletop and floor standing options that dispense still, sparkling, flavoured, hot and chilled water. Its Table Water Bottling Systems provide purified chilled, still and sparkling water in reusable glass bottles, which can be branded with client logos.
