Presstec to represent Grafotronic in South Africa

Grafotronic is targeting growth through entry into new markets and said the agreement in South Africa is an important step to reach worldwide coverage in 2013.

Presstec has sales and service offices in Johannesburg and Durban.

Antron Hendricks, chief executive officer of Presstec, said: ‘Presstec is a family company just like Grafotronic and we share the same business values, the strong passion for our customers and an excellent service.

‘We have just finished our first tour together with Grafotronic in South Africa. The response from our customers across the country is fantastic and we believe that we are offering something new that our market needs.’

Gabriele Gerbella, international sales manager at Grafotronic, added: ‘The Hendricks brothers are very well known on their own market as tooling manufacturers and machine suppliers and with skilled engineers giving on-site after-sales support we believe that they will be the right partner for us in South Africa.’
