According to figures just released by InfoSource, the office automation market data specialist, office and print solutions company Ricoh Ireland, has become the No. 1 provider of print and imaging solutions in Ireland for the first time based on its market share in 2010.
Ricoh designs, develops and manufactures a range of print and document management, hardware, software and services which they say are tailored to meet individual customer needs. Its devices print, copy, scan and fax documents as an integrated part of the IT network and enterprise content management system. Software is used to audit usage, manage
document flows, simplify business processes, control print expenditure and secure access.
Part of the global $22bn Ricoh operation, the company's strong year in Ireland saw the successful merger of IKON into a single, integrated Ricoh business. This merger resulted in a number of high profile customer wins across the commercial, higher education and public sectors, beating competitors like HP, Canon, Xerox and Kyocera. Ricoh also has a strong partner network in Ireland, including leading local distributors such as Bizquip, Digicom and KopyKat.
As Ricoh Ireland entered its new financial year on 1st April, it expects to consolidate its market leading position in the Irish market. Alan Mason, managing director, Ricoh Ireland, comments: "Our achievement of reaching first place in the Irish market for the first time is an important milestone for both the local and international business. We hope to grow market share in Ireland again this year through continued service excellence and the introduction of some very high-quality, innovative and sustainable new technologies."
Mason added: "We anticipate growth in a number of key areas, particularly for our world-class production and digital print portfolio. We are also experiencing significant growth for our managed document services which are helping customers to cut document management costs by at least 30%. This new service-oriented model is being supported by the Ricoh Group's recent investment of $300M in our global MDS infrastructure."
