Westside Distribution was formed in 1995 and is based in Glasgow, Scotland. They distribute many top brands including Sabian, Gon Bops, DW and now Los Cabos Drumsticks.

Matt Carter, marketing and artist relations manager for Los Cabos Drumsticks, says:

"We're very excited to be working with Westside Distribution. Westside represent an impressive line of products including some of the top names in drums and percussion. We feel very fortunate to be recognized and included among such an impressive array of manufacturers. We're confident this new partnership will help bring about many new relationships throughout the UK and the Republic of Ireland."

The Los Cabos catalogue boasts over 40 different drumstick models, with full ranges made from Maple, Hickory, and Red Hickory, and also includes a complete range of percussion tools- brushes, mallets, practice pads and percussion sticksaccessories.

Comments Westside's Jay Lewington:

"These sticks are made to an extremely high standard and their quality and durability is second to none. Any drummer who tries them out is sure to agree. For me they are the most durable hickory sticks on the market."

The Los Cabos ethos to go the extra mile isn’t just limited to their product range. Knowledge and understanding of materials and manufacturing coupled with awareness towards environmental issues have influenced many company operating practices, and they are determined to make their carbon footprint as small as possible and to impact as little as they can on their native Canadian countryside.

Safe environmental practices limit hazardous chemicals, waste reduction means wood shavings are used as fuel during the long Canadian winters or sent to local farmers as bedding, and the majority of wood is grown and harvested under the Forest Stewardship Council for sustainability.
