Konica Minolta SA takes top spot at awards

Bidvest company, Konica Minolta South Africa has been named as the Dealer of the Year at a recent Konica Minolta Business Technologies Japan award ceremony, held in Fukuoka, Japan.

The award, which saw companies across the globe – with the exception of the US and Europe – vying for top position, marks Konica Minolta South Africa’s fourth consecutive win.

According to MD, Alan Griffith, to be named as the best Konica Minolta dealer in the world yet again demonstrates that the company consistently offers quality performance.

“By winning the number one award, we have managed to beat regions including Australasia, mainland China, South America and the entire Middle East in terms of numbers,” explains Griffith. “In fact, of all of the machines supplied to the ‘rest of the world’ region, Konica Minolta South Africa accounted for an exceptional 25 percent.”

In addition, Konica Minolta South Africa’s Mike Mthombeni took the honour of top sales performer across the entire African and Middle Eastern region for the second consecutive year, in Konica Minolta Business Technologies Japan’s annual Colour Champions League incentive.

“It really is a remarkable achievement for us, particularly within the current depressed economic climate and we believe that the combination of our dedicated staff, solid dealer structure and Konica Minolta South Africa’s value proposition, has brought new vitality to the local market,” Griffith concluded.
