In the last several years the market of Georgia showed dynamic growth — market participants positively perceive the innovative solutions of Konica Minolta. For example, one polygraphic company from Tbilisi purchased the intelligent module of quality control IQ-501 a year ago. Besides, the market needs solutions for industrial printing: we held several fruitful meetings with potential customers, and now are ready to organize demotur to the European showroom of industrial solutions of Konica Minolta. Our main differences from competitors — a full integration with business of the client, providing consultations and the solution of system questions. We build up customer relations in a "partner — the partner" plane, but not "the client — the contractor", and we aim to help clients to try to obtain success, said the marketing director of Konica Minolta Ukraine Evgeny Shilyaev

In addition to optimization of model of sales, opening of representative office of Konica Minolta in Kazakhstan is a logical step of strategy implementation on expansion of presence in the region.
