GPT secures key HP Scitex reseller contract

Print kit distributor Graphic Printing Technologies (GPT) has been appointed as a key reseller for HP’s new range of flatbed industrial printers

Under the agreement, which builds on an existing relationship between the two companies, GPT will now offer its customers the HP Scitex FB550 and FB750.   

GPT, which already offers HP's Latex range of printers, confirmed it will have an HP FB550 in its own showroom in time for the firm’s PrintoberFest event this October. 

“We only started focusing on the HP Latex range at the start of this year and we have already exceeded our sales targets, thanks largely to a very successful Sign & Digital show,” comments GPT general manager Shaun Thompson.

“Being appointed as one of the key resellers for the new HP flatbed printers further promotes our relationship with HP.

We are developing strategically and positively and our commitment is to offer our customers the very best possible printing solutions the market has to offer

“They are a responsive, professional organisation with a lot of technical, market and application knowledge. 

“We know they are also very strong in the flatbed printers market and we are very much looking forward to growing a solid and successful partnership with them.”
