Tharstern joins Supa drupa BBQ

Tharstern, an MIS supplier from the United Kingdom, has joined Printing Industries supa drupa tour as the latest Aussie BBQ sponsor.

Tharstern Australia joins the elite group of major industry suppliers sponsoring the events including Agfa, Fuji Xerox, Heidelberg and PaperlinX. Tharstern entered the Australian market about 12 months ago promoting and installing TharsternSQL which is used by over 700 printing companies in the UK.

Sales director for Tharstern Australia, Napil Abdel, said his company, which will be exhibiting at drupa, was very happy to be a sponsor of both tour week's Aussie Night BBQs.

"Last Drupa in 2004 saw TharsternSQL as the leader in JDF integration for MIS solutions, a tool for amplifying internal efficiencies and a concept well proven and applied to many sites since," he said.

"This year, the focus is on securing the customer's print-spend through a new evolution of online print and ordering, totally integrated into the MIS. Maximum automation, minimum handling, long-term secured print contracts and increased margins is the focus of the next release of the TharsternSQL e4print e-commerce product.

"A number of sub-modules are also due for release, with specific focus on brokers; freight tracking; stock management and a number of other changes that will thrill current users and inspire those looking for an MIS partner."

Abdel said that the Tharstern Australia team would take great pleasure in showing the product to Australian printers as it sums up what the local printing industry has been waiting for in both MIS technology but also as an online sales tool; warehousing and logistics system and a means of building a solid base to the company's infrastructure.
