Leicester, UK – Cooke Optics has opened its long-awaited Chinese office in Shanghai. As with all other international offices, Cooke China will provide full lens servicing and testing. This new office further strengthens Cooke Optics’ dedication to worldwide service and support.

Les Zellan, Chairman, Cooke Optics, said, “We’re thrilled to have permanent presence in the Asia and Oceania market, based out of Shanghai. We’re a global brand with users all across the world so it was essential for us to offer our customers in this region the same amount of support that customers have in Europe and the Americas. With Jeson and Thomas at the helm, I’m sure we’ll see increased adoption of the Cooke brand in the region.”

The Cooke China office will be run by general manager, Jeson Hao, who will be supported by Thomas Greiser in the region. Jason, Thomas and Les met customers at BIRTV in Beijing last week on both the Cheng Seng Stand and the Prodigi Solution Stand.

 

For over 100 years, Cooke has been at the centre of the filmmaking business. We've been listening to the community of which we are a part. We lead by introducing new products such as /i Technology, and we remember our success is built on a simple idea - do what the filmmaker needs.

 

Our factory in Leicester, England has generations from the same family working side by side. That experience is un-beaten anywhere. We manufacture a full range of primes and zooms for 35mm, digital and Super 16mm photography, plus a range of large format stills lenses.
