FC Group's Team had a phenomenal 10 days at Drupa – No. 1 for printing technologies

The show taking place on 28 May – 7 Jun 2024 saw many of our valued customers and prospects visit our partner stands

The team from FC Group had a phenomenal 10 days at Drupa—no. 1 for printing technologies, working on our partners— Miraclon Corporation and Kodak Print stands. We met and greeted several of our key customers and prospects during this major industry expo. Our MD invested heavily in three members of his staff, alongside himself, to attend this major exhibition and were delighted to have been present.

It was ten days filled with #innovations, #inspiration, #trends, and #worldfirsts! After eight years, it was finally time for the international print industry to meet again at the world's leading trade fair for printing technologies, top-class knowledge transfer and intensive networking at the Messe in Dusseldorf.

Both of our partner stands were modern, interactive, well-branded and positioned. We met with more than a hundred customers and key prospects during the ten days, and we at FC Group were honoured to have represented our partners as the ‘Authorised distributor’ to attendees joining the show from strategic African countries.

It was a pleasure catching up with our customers from both flexo and offset industries, together with our partners, to discuss their business needs against trends, the latest technologies and how it is impacting them and the printing communities.

Most attendees, including FC Group, would agree that this year’s Drupa lived up to its name of being the leading trade fair for print technologies and the hotspot for the global printing community. We are eagerly looking forward to the next four years and cannot wait to see how the print and packaging industry will evolve.

A HUGE THANK YOU to our customers and key prospects who took the time to find us among the maze of exhibition floor plans and booths. We look forward to our continued relationships and in servicing them with both their flexo and offset needs in the coming years!

For Miraclon Corporation, our Flexo partner, their key focus during the show was “How modern flexo can enable the flexo community to make that future a commercial success”; and for Kodak, our offset partner, it was about “All new #inkjet and #offset solutions for the era of "and" in printing”.

Our salesforce and engineers continue to interact with customers and key prospects, who visited us, to deliberate on proposals and information shared for equipment, plates, software, or hardware upgrades, that formed part of our discussions and meetings during Drupa.
