PrintIT Reseller - issue 109

PRINTITRESELLER.UK 3 The PrintIT Awards judging panel came together on September 5, to discuss and debate which companies deserved to win a 2023 PrintIT award. I have to say it was no easy feat, not only did we receive a recordbreaking number of entries this year, but the quality of the submissions was top-notch too, which made our jobs a whole lot harder. Congratulations to everyone who made the shortlist (check out page 22) – that in itself is something that should be applauded, and I look forward to revealing the winners and celebrating your successes at the Royal Lancaster on December 5. Sustainability is very much front of mind at the moment, and the focus on companies doing their bit is only set to intensify as we strive to achieve net-zero. PrintIT Reseller invited some of the sector’s leading print vendors to comment on recent findings from Quocirca’s Channel Sustainability Study 2023 – see page 40 and next month we’ll feature the views of several prominent channel companies. Also in this issue, Kevin McNally, UK & Ireland Sales Director at Asolvi, picks the work tools he uses every day and couldn’t do his job without (page 18). This month’s Q&A is with Arwel Griffiths, Managing Director, Ar Graff Cymru, and PITR spent 60 seconds with Arjan Paulussen, Managing Director, Western Europe and English-Speaking Africa at Lexmark.
