Wow.

Gold Apollo founder Hsu Ching-kuang told reporters on Wednesday morning that his firm had signed a contract with a European distributor to use the Gold Apollo brand.

Hsu said the distributor, which he did not name, established a relationship with Gold Apollo about three years ago.

At first, the European company only imported Gold Apollo’s other pager and communication products, he said. Later, the company told Gold Apollo they wished to make their own pager and asked for the right to use the Taiwanese company’s brand, he said.

Hsu said Gold Apollo had encountered at least one anomaly in its dealings with the distributor, citing a wire transfer that took a long time to clear.
