TEMPO MUSIC IMPEX SRL

What TEMPO MUSIC IMPEX SRL does

Tempo Music Impex SRL operates Music and More (musicandmore.ro), a Romanian e-commerce and physical retail platform specializing in musical instruments and audio equipment. Founded in 2006 as a Romanian private limited company (SRL) headquartered in Campina, Prahova County, the company sells a comprehensive catalog spanning acoustic, electric, classical, and bass guitars; digital pianos, keyboards, and synthesizers; PA systems, active and portable speakers, audio mixers, subwoofers, and stage lighting; studio recording equipment including microphones, audio interfaces, Eurorack modules, and drum machines; wind instruments (flutes, clarinets, saxophones, trumpets); string instruments (violins, cellos); hearing protection; and accessories.

The platform is built on standard e-commerce retail technology with integrated inventory management, supporting both online sales and a physical showroom in Campina where customers can test and purchase products. Tempo Music Impex holds exclusive Romanian distribution rights for Schecter Guitar Research and serves as authorized distributor for Soundsation, NUX, and other brands, alongside retail partnerships with Fender, Nord, and Alpine Hearing Protection. The technology layer supporting the business is conventional rather than differentiated, with no proprietary systems disclosed.

The business model is direct-to-consumer with two primary revenue streams: one-time retail sales of instruments and equipment (prices in RON with VAT included, ranging from 19 lei to 7,650 lei), and instrument/equipment rental services for digital pianos, synthesizers, PA systems, and lighting. The company extends commercial reach through installment payment partnerships with three Romanian banks (Banca Transilvania, Alpha Bank, Raiffeisen Bank) offering 6-12 month interest-free plans, free shipping above 499 lei, and a 14-day return policy. Customer segments span individual hobbyists (primary), professional musicians, educational institutions, and event organizers, all served within Romania exclusively.

Direct peers

• Dawsons Music: Dawsons is a UK multi-channel musical instrument retailer with online sales and physical stores offering guitars, keyboards, pro audio, and accessories plus rental services. Closely matches Tempo's combination of retail + rental across instruments and event audio.
• Gear4Music: Gear4Music is a UK-based online musical instrument and equipment retailer with a broad catalogue including guitars, keyboards, PA, lighting and recording gear. Very similar omnichannel e-commerce + showroom hybrid model serving European hobbyists and professional musicians.
• Andertons Music Co: Andertons is a UK musical instrument retailer known for guitar, amp, keyboard, and pro audio sales via e-commerce and a brick-and-mortar store. Closely matched business model — multi-brand e-commerce plus physical showroom — with similar premium brand relationships (Fender, Schecter-adjacent, Nord).
• Bax Music: Bax Music is a large Netherlands-based musical instrument retailer (online + physical showrooms) with a deep pro audio, lighting, and instrument catalogue. Direct competitor for Tempo's product mix across guitar, PA, lighting, and studio categories.

Regional players

• eMAG: eMAG is Romania's largest online marketplace and lists musical instruments, pro audio, and accessories from third-party sellers. A potential substitute for Tempo for entry-level and mid-range products where Romanian consumers shop by default.
• Flanco: Flanco is one of Romania's largest consumer electronics and appliance retail chains with a broad online and physical presence. Carries some audio, accessories, and beginner musical instruments as part of a broader retail assortment, competing for entry-level consumer wallet share.
• Altex Romania: Altex is a major Romanian consumer electronics retailer with extensive online and physical presence. Stretches into adjacent categories like home audio and accessories and competes for general consumer spending on related gear.
• K&M Musik (Klangfarbe / session): K&M is a German pro audio and musical instrument retailer with online and physical stores carrying PA systems, lighting, guitars, and studio gear. Comparable pro-audio and event-equipment focus, though operating in a different national market.

Broad incumbents

• Thomann: Thomann is Europe's largest online musical instrument retailer with a massive catalogue (guitars, keyboards, pro audio, studio gear, DJ equipment, lighting) serving all EU countries including Romania. Direct overlap in nearly every Tempo category, and a structural threat to Tempo's local pricing power due to scale and shipping network.
• Sweetwater: Sweetwater is the largest US online musical instrument retailer with deep pro audio and guitar inventories, world-class customer service, and international shipping. Comparable omnichannel retail model and the same target segments (individual musicians, professionals, schools).
