Your Partner in Production and AV Technologies
VMI, Inc. is a leading provider of audio-visual (AV) and broadcast solutions since its inception in 1975. Our founder, Dick Dorsa, started the company with a simple love for video technology, which has since grown into a thriving business offering a wide range of solutions to our clients.
At VMI, we pride ourselves on being a one-stop-shop for all your AV and broadcast needs. We offer a comprehensive suite of services, including sales, service, rentals, design, and installation, ensuring that our clients receive the best solution tailored to their specific needs.
Our history is rooted in manufacturing, where we produced several popular products such as the Z-6, Eagle, Mickey, and V-lan series. However, over the years, we have expanded our capabilities to include rental and production services, a customer loaner program, and an in-house service department.
Our rental department offers high-quality production and AV equipment for rent, enabling our clients to access top-notch technology without the high upfront costs. Our customer loaner program is a unique offering that entitles customers who purchase their equipment from us to a free loaner from our rental stock if their equipment goes down, is unavailable due to backorder, or is in for repair.
Our service department is staffed with experienced technicians who provide prompt and reliable repair services for both in-warranty and out-of-warranty products. We understand the importance of timely repairs, and our loaner program and service department ensure that our clients experience minimal downtime.
In the late 1980s and early 1990s, we added a design and installation department for production and AV solutions. Our team of experts provides customized solutions for our clients, ensuring that their technology is integrated seamlessly into their spaces.
Over the years, we have grown from a small company serving the San Francisco Bay Area to a full-service company serving the entire West Coast. We offer a wide range of broadcast, production, streaming, presentation, collaboration, and digital signage solutions, ensuring that our clients have access to the best technology for their needs.
Our team is passionate about the production and AV industries, and we strive to provide the best solutions for our clients. We are committed to staying up-to-date with the latest technology and trends, ensuring that our clients receive the most innovative and effective solutions.
