A strategic regional agreement between GCG-DDS and RISO France takes GCG’s printing capabilities beyond the laser’s edge
GCG-Digital Document Solutions (DDS) of Dubai signed an exclusive distribution partnership agreement with Paris-headquartered RISO-EMEA, offering the Japanese tech giant access to the Gulf Region, and the use of a new showroom, which will be opened to the public to showcase their stunning range of printing solutions.
“Over the years, our partnership with GCG has grown continuously stronger. It happened naturally that we today entrust them with this regional responsibility. Their technical and sales team are of the highest caliber and perfectly understand the added value our unique technology can bring to this market.” Says Fabrice Sposito, Managing Director of RISO France.
The agreement was signed at RISO showroom in GCG’s Headquarter in the presence of Mr. Naser Darwazeh, General Manager of GCG-DDS, Mr. Saeed Ghobash, Ghobash Group Chairman, Mr. Niels Bormans, Aban Investment CEO, and Mr. James Hedhli, Middle East Sales Director from RISO-EMEA. Leaders from RISO’s Japan headquarters Mr. Kawatsu, General Manager of International Sales, Mr. Takushima, General Manager of the European Sales Department, and Mr. Shimomoto were also present to witness the momentous occasion.
“We today, are celebrating hard work and dedication by confirming a partnership that will motivate everyone’s effort towards a successful future, a partnership that will only add strength to both teams,” said Nabeel Bishtawi, GCG-DDS Division Manager.
While the speed of RISO inkjet printing technology is impressive—outclassing laser printing, which for many years has been the gold standard of printing—what makes this printer significant from an ecological point of view is the reduction in heat energy required and increased ink efficiency. The result is a cold printing process that is the right choice for lower power consumption, reduced CO2 emissions, and, ultimately a business’s bottom line.
