PRINTITRESELLER.UK 3 COMMENT Entries to the 2025 PrintIT Awards have been open for a month now! The clock is ticking, and the deadline isn’t that far away. There’s no better time than the present to get your entries completed. I’ve included a handy reminder of the 2025 categories and a summary of the criteria for each award – see page 22. I really enjoyed putting together this month’s VOX POP. Last issue some of the industry’s OEMs spoke about the steps they are taking to support a circular economy, in terms of sustainable manufacturing, increased use of PCR content in devices and their recycling and refurbishment offerings. Beginning on page 40, we invited a selection of resellers to share their thoughts on customer expectations around circularity/sustainability, and whether sustainably‑manufactured and/or refurbished devices provide a competitive edge. Also in this issue, Mihaela Popescu, Marketing Manager at Managed Print Solutions, picks the work tools she uses every day and couldn’t do her job without (page 18). This month’s Q&A is with Steve Young, Managing Director, Stream Managed Services and PITR spent 60 seconds with Ferdi Xavier, Sales Executive Apprentice, IT Document Solutions. If you’ve got any news about your business to share, would like to be included on our monthly VOX POP panel, have a compelling business success story or simply wish to comment on any industry issues, please get in touch with me at: [email protected] Michelle Ryder, Editor Editor’s Comment Register online To receive your regular FREE printed copy of PrintIT Reseller Magazine simply fill in our online registration form at www.printitreseller.uk/register Read PrintIT Reseller online at: www.printitreseller.uk Join us : Follow us @print-it-reseller-magazine PRINT IT RESELLER MAGAZINE IN PRINT & ONLINE SINCE 2011 PrintIT Reseller is published by Kingswood Media Ltd., 7 Amherst House, 22 London Road, Sevenoaks TN13 2BT • Tel: 01732 759725 Email: [email protected] www.printitreseller.uk No part of PrintIT Reseller can be reproduced without prior written permission of the publisher. ©2025 Kingswood Media Ltd. 04 Bulletin News from the channel 12 Bulletin Where do you take yours? 16 People A round-up of new hires 18 I couldn’t do my job without...
