MONTREAL—Kleargo, a distributor of optical accessories and lab supplies located here, announced the expansion of their operations with the opening of a U.S. office and distribution center in Dickinson, Texas.

“Kleargo has been servicing most major U.S. retailers for years from their Canadian operations. The need for the U.S. office was inevitable,” said Marc Lefebvre, president of Kleargo.

The Kleargo product line and services will be closer to hand, thereby significantly reducing costs and delivery times, according to an announcement from the company. Kleargo has always been conscientious in its corporate movement and despite the current economic environment this was as an opportune time for expansion, Lefebvre said

Lisa Langley, who has spent 15 years in optical, will head the operations in Texas which is currently open for business.

Kleargo also specializes in the manufacturing of custom clip-ons and stocks over 2000 product lines. Kleargo is partnered with Chris Maroudas of Vision Tailors (Florida) in the manufacturing of custom clip-ons.

The Texas office is located at 1750-D, Dickinson Ave., Dickinson, Texas 77539; (888) 534-4901,(281) 534-4901 and fax (281) 534-4951. For more information, go to www.kleargo.com.
