Abstract: Let $ \Omega \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ be a bounded convex or strictly pseudoconvex open subset. Given a separable Hilbert space $ K$ and a weak$ ^*$ closed subspace $ \mathcal{T} \subset B(K)$, we show that the space $ H^\infty(\Omega, \mathcal{T})$ of all bounded holomorphic $ \mathcal{T}$-valued functions on $ \Omega$ possesses the tensor product representation $ H^\infty(\Omega, \mathcal{T}) = H^\infty(\Omega){\overline{\otimes}}\mathcal{T}$ with respect to the normal spatial tensor product. As a consequence we deduce that $ H^\infty(\Omega)$ has property $ S_\sigma$. This implies that, if $ S\in B(H)^n$ is a subnormal tuple of class $ \mathbb{A}$ on a strictly pseudoconvex or bounded symmetric domain and $ T \in B(K)^m$ is a commuting tuple satisfying AlgLat$ (T) = \mathcal{A}_T$ (where $ \mathcal{A}_T$ denotes the unital dual operator algebra generated by $ T$), then the tensor product tuple $ (S\otimes 1, 1 \otimes T)$ is reflexive.
