Clair Global has expanded its footprint with the opening of a new location in the US territory of Puerto Rico, bringing onboard the experienced team from Wichie Sound Performance, Inc. a well-established local audio services provider.

Fernando 'Wichie' Martínez, founder and owner of Wichie Sound, will continue to lead the Puerto Rico operations under the Clair Global banner. His guidance, combined with his team's expertise and dedication, will be integral to delivering the high-quality service to which Clair Global clients are accustomed.

The new location further strengthens Clair Global's commitment to the region by combining local talent with global resources to better serve touring and live events customers throughout the Caribbean.

"Wichie is well-respected not just in Puerto Rico, but throughout the Caribbean Sea region, and his talented team harmonize naturally with the culture at Clair Global," said Clair Global CEO, Troy Clair. "With their domestic knowledge, we look forward to further enhancing our worldwide offering."

All staff will become part of Clair Global, with Wichie crediting the longevity and loyalty of his staff over the years as imperative to his success so far. "It is an honor to become part of Clair Global, a company that delivers with distinction and puts its people first. I am especially grateful to my team members who have been with us for over a decade - their ongoing dedication has made this next chapter in our story possible," said Wichie.

"People such as Javier “Chico” Morales, Jorge Frontera, Luis “Choco” López, José “Joey” Arias, Juan “Papo” Rivera, Emmanuel “Cano” Morales and Katherine Varley, and our newer team members, Héctor Quiñones, Abraham Ortiz, Ricardo Rosa and Israel Delgado. Together, they have been the backbone of Wichie Sound Performance, Inc.”
