Davis Graphics General Manager, Felipe Arias says, “The label industry in South America continues to flourish and we are now doing business in other countries. Our company focus, in the beginning, was only in Chile. This new appointment from Xeikon will enable us to broadly extend our services to cover six countries within the continent. Our relationship with Xeikon started with an investment in a dry toner machine and this inspired the popularity in our country for their innovative technology. We are now doing business in Argentina supporting also Paraguay and Uruguay. We are also set to open an office in Peru by the end of this year, which will support Bolivia.”
Chile is a leading exporter of wine and one of the top five in the world. Argentina is listed in the top 10. The food, wine and spirits industries have a significant share in the economy of these regions. Suppliers to these regions are behind the technology drive and businesses looking for new revenue streams are keen to invest in the latest equipment. Arias continues, “Xeikon’s popularity continues to grow in this part of the world. Their advanced dry toner technology with food safety accreditation is proving a winner for the food and drinks industries in Chile. Now we can extend the opportunity and offer Xeikon’s leading technologies in other countries. Our strategy is to offer a complete solution – from prepress to finishing. We want to make sure that each customer has the best choice of options and every opportunity for business growth and new revenue streams. At Davis Graphics we hope to offer something different – something extra.”
