GBC Australia scores local MGI distribution rights

MGI chooses GBC as its authorised distributor for Australia and New Zealand.

The US-based company was keen to expand its presence throughout the two countries. Raj Dang, general manager of GBC Australia said that MGI chose the company because they each work across similar areas.

"Over the years our business has evolved and been at the forefront of digital print finishing; so when MGI said they were interested we thought they were an innovative company who fitted well with our business," he said.

With full showrooms to be located in Sydney and Melbourne, GBC Australia will provide sales and technical support for MGI's full line of digital solutions, including the Meteor DP60 Pro; UVarnish; PressCard Pro; PunchCard Pro and the PowerLam.

MGI had tried other companies in Australia but settled on GBC for its range and scope, Dang said.

"They wanted a company that could offer them national coverage," he said, pointing to GBC's 45 service technicians and 80 sales representatives.

"MGI supply a lot of niche products for specialist needs and we like to focus on niche areas. It was a good fit for us."
