CHICAGO, ILLINOIS — Hearing care retailer Beltone has announced the expansion of MLM Hearing, LLC Beltone locations into the United States. MLM, which currently operates 29 Beltone Canada locations, has successfully acquired 59 Beltone locations in the U.S., becoming the sole independent distributors of Beltone to operate in both countries.

Amir Hadar and Jonathan Weizman, hearing industry veterans and owners of MLM, joined Beltone Canada more than a year ago. Since then, they have expanded Beltone’s presence in several Canadian provinces and were recognized as the Beltone Canada Dispensers of the Year for 2022.

With the addition of their U.S. locations, MLM now owns and operates 88 Beltone offices throughout North America, positioning themselves to become one of the largest independent owners of Beltone within the next few years.

“As long-time professionals in our industry, we are thrilled about what this merger means to our rapidly expanding organization. With Beltone, we are now able to leverage a household name that has not only been around for over 80 years but has further undergone a massive revamping in recent history. While employing strategies which have helped propel us to incredible industry heights over the past 15 years, we plan to fully justify the trust which has now been placed in us by Beltone to exceed and excel, while maintaining our ‘Patient First’ and ‘Employee First’ methodologies.”

–Amir Hadar, CEO of MLM Hearing, LLC

Jonathan Weizman, President of MLM Hearing, LLC, highlighted the potential of the merger with Wolverine Hearing and the partnership with Beltone, saying, “MLM’s merger with Wolverine Hearing will lead to tremendous opportunities for all involved, and we are happy to be working closely with Beltone as our brand of choice. We share an expansive vision for the future and, with our experienced team of professionals and industry veterans, there is virtually no limit to what can be achieved. Together, we will reach new heights to the benefit of the hearing healthcare industry and the patients we steadfastly serve.”

David Molella, President of Beltone North America, expressed his satisfaction with having industry veterans like Amir and Jonathan as part of the Beltone family, emphasizing their shared purpose of bringing people closer. Molella looks forward to the fruitful collaboration between Beltone and MLM in the years to come.

MLM invites hearing aid practice owners in the U.S. and Canada who are ready for a change to consider joining their expanding Beltone network across North America.
