GBC Films Group Europe – Lenny McAlla and Mike Norton, Area Sales Managers
'What a Northprint! We’ve had a very busy few days and we are run off our feet. We sold the Delta Commercial Laminator off our stand on the first day to a new customer out of the blue'.
Heidelberg – Gary Wilkinson, Sales Manager
'We have been literally run off our feet! Surprisingly, not only are we seeing small family-owned companies, but also large corporates. The show has generated a lot of orders and our sales people will be busy following up the huge amount of enquiries we have received here'.
Danwood – Gerry Mulvany - Press
'This was an absolutely first class show and the perfect venue to introduce our new division to the industry. We have far more prospects and strong enquiries than expected not only from printers but also from inhouse corporate and council print departments'.
Xeikon – Greg Neesham, Sales Director
'We have done extremely well here and expect to achieve £600,000 worth of business just at the show. People are looking to grow and differentiate their digital printing services by adding value and that’s where we are seeing particular interest. We were surprised to see someone who came all the way from the Sudan just to see us'!
Morgana – Andrew Webster
'It’s a busy and buzzy show and by the end of it we expect to have signed up close to £200,000 worth of new business – and all of it from people we have never met before! This show is a great opportunity for the market to see what’s available and we have seen visitors from all over the country'.
Hewlett Packard, Paul Randall, UK Marketing Manager
'We have had many visitors to the stand and have generated plenty of interest from a mixture of prospect and existing customers. We are pleased to say that we have sold 2 HP Indigo 5000s here at Northprint. This year Northprint is a very productive and strong show – there is a real buzz'.
Duplo International – Peter Jolly, Marketing Communications Manager
'Northprint is always a good show for us but this time it was absolutely phenomenal, exceeding all expectations. We launched four new products here and the reception was fantastic. There were no tire kickers – just serious buyers and we sold £250,000 worth of finishing equipment over the three days alone'.
Litho Supplies, Eddie Williams, Group Sales Director
'It has been an excellent show, there has been a high quality of visitors and orders taken on stand and we exceeded our exhibitor target by day two. The show has given us a platform to build on for the rest of 2005'.
