18 the hub 01/2013 A C H I E V E M E N T S Konica Minolta South Africa sprints ahead of the competition >>> Konica Minolta South Africa (KMSA) has successfully defended its title as the number one supplier of multifunctional printers (MFPs) in the local market, in both colour and black & white product sales. This is according to an industry sales survey by market data specialist infoSource, which shows MFP sales in the first half of 2012 According to Marianna Gdanis business unit manager at Konica Minolta South Africa, total placements grew by an astonishing 17% when comparing the first half of 2011 to the first six months of 2012. The black & white placements grew by 13.4%, which is significant as this is typically considered a mature market within the industry and the colour placements grew by an incredible 24.8% during the same period. She adds that these figures are due to the company’s sophisticated bizhub devices that provide the best value for money for medium to large businesses in South Africa. KMSA has proven its strong legacy and brand reputation in the market and the continuous focus on client satisfaction has paid off. The product and capabilities of the company’s products and services, have propelled KMSA into an unparalleled market position in terms of the ability to integrate and customise business specific solutions, such as the in-house developed Microsoft SharePoint connector that embeds bizhub devices directly into SharePoint for a tailor-made and automated workflow optimisation solution – a market first. The company is extremely pleased with the results and regard the efforts and hard work from all employees highly. Their energy and passion for the product, combined with state-of-the-art devices that are underlined by tangible sustainability technology are proving to be a winning concept in this competitive market. Clients can be confident that they are dealing with the leaders in both colour and black & white technology. During the first half of this year, KMSA was also awarded the international Konica Minolta Distributor of the Year Award, surpassing other territories across the globe (with the exception of the US and Europe). It is the seventh year in succession that KMSA has won this prestigious award, outperforming more economically developed countries. KMSA continuously investigates more areas where it can add efficiency to a business and enhance the working environments of its clients.
A C H I E V E M E N T S bizhub job wins Seriti top digital printing award >>> Seriti Printing, a Konica Minolta South Africa client, has been given the top award for digital printing by Printing SA, formerly known as the Printing Industries Federation of South Africa (PIFSA). The digital print job that garnered the award was printed on a Konica Minolta bizhub PRO C6500 digital production device. According to Avril Swart, digital printing manager at Seriti Printing, the Pretoria-based production house has had a bizhub PRO C6500 for five years and is especially impressed by the consistent quality that it delivers. Seriti Printing is extremely proud of their digital award. Moreover though, the bizhub PRO C6500 has made a huge impact on the flexibility of their business, the cost of a job and the superb and reliable output of each digital print run. The winning print job was printed on a bizhub PRO C6500 For this reason, they have invested in Konica Minolta’s next generation flagship model, the bizhub PRESS C8000, which offers high image quality and definition that is almost equal to offset printers. Seriti Printing specialises in the printing of annual reports, posters, magazines, brochures and advertising material for a range of clients such as government, academic, banking and numerous private businesses. Seriti highlights that it has become important for the printing house to be able to offer these clients a high-quality digital offering in addition to its litho services. According to Swart, time, cost and job quality are the three most significant factors for clients. The bizhub presses allow us to address all these requirements. That is, our clients are assured of a fast turnaround time at a low cost and at the highest possible quality. “Of course, the fact that Konica Minolta South Africa is a sound business partner is critical too. Having the best machine with no after-sales training or service renders the device ineffective. We’d most certainly recommend Konica Minolta South Africa and its service – which is instant and constant – and are really looking forward to what the bizhub PRESS C8000 will deliver, both for us and our clients,” concludes Swart. the hub 01/2013 19
