Columbia, Maryland (August 15, 2002) — Printronix recently presented two awards to PEAK Technologies, as its largest global reseller and the leader in sales of its continuous form laser printer line. "PEAK not only led the pack in total sales but they also had the highest percentage growth rate for the year," said Andrei Hall, Sr. Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Printronix. "The secret of their success, in my opinion, is their large and highly-qualified service organization that builds strong relationships and keeps their customers informed of opportunities for upgrades." Founded in 1974, Printronix is today recognized as the leading independent supplier of line matrix printers and is a leading supplier of printers for bar code label printing. PEAK Technologies is an international systems integrator focusing on enterprise printing and data collection, mobile computing, and on-going service and support.
"PEAK's performance in the last year was truly awesome," Hall continued. "Besides being the overall sales leader and the leader in sales of one of our three major product lines, they were also very close to being the sales leader in a second major product line, thermal printers. PEAK's success is based on their ability to clearly understand customer issues and focus resources on providing a solution that addresses the customer's needs. The breadth of their organization gives them the resources to provide a complete solution that extends beyond printing to incorporate data collection, wireless networks and software integration. Their project management team has the skills needed to design and deliver a complete solution and their 350-person-strong service organization helps keep their customers productive while at the same time serving as a valuable source of sales leads." "We are extremely proud to win these awards," said Steve Hall, Vice President of Business Development for PEAK Technologies, "because we highly value our long-term and strategic business partnership with Printronix. "The strong emphasis that PEAK places on the printer and supplies market is demonstrated by the fact that we have dedicated resources across North America and Europe that provide technical expertise in these areas. We see printing solutions, and specifically our partnership with Printronix, as an important part of fulfilling our mission of helping manufacturing, warehousing, distribution and logistics management operations implement solutions that will help them increase productivity and reduce costs across the enterprise," added Hall. In addition to the full line of Printronix thermal, line matrix, and continuous form laser printers, PEAK's global reseller award was achieved through superior sales performance of genuine Printronix supplies, spare parts and accessories. As a further example of the growing relationship between PEAK and Printronix, Printronix recently implemented the PEAK S/3 Interface solution to integrate their just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing operations with wireless data capture feeding into their SAP R/3 system worldwide. This process provides the crucial synchronization of material and information within Printronix's JIT manufacturing operation. The PEAK S/3 Interface is being used at four Printronix sites in Memphis, Tennessee; Irvine, California; Holland and Singapore.
