David Lee, Focus Label Machinery managing director, commented: ‘I am confident our new representatives, with their wealth of industry knowledge, will be invaluable in advancing our growth within the European territories, and we look forward to welcoming more clients to the ever-increasing Focus family.’

Kliše-Kop is reported as having been looking to partner with a brand that represents its own family-run business philosophy, and with its own manufacturing offering new and innovative modular and flexible products to the market.

‘Focus fits this mandate very well and we look forward to representing them to gain market share,’ said Keskic.

‘With the major trade show of Labelexpo Europe in Brussels upon us, it is perfect timing to announce this partnership and give our customer base the opportunity to visit the Focus team and products during the show.’
