Graphic Whizard signs distribution agreement with Xerox for PT 335SCC Multi

Canadian OEM and print finishing specialist Graphic Whizard (Burlington, Ontario), along with Graphic Whizard USA, have finalized a distribution agreement that will initially see all Xerox sales channels in the United States selling Graphic Whizard’s PT 335SCC Multi Slit/Cut/Crease Finishing System. “This robust, all-in-one finishing system has taken the North American finishing industry by storm since it was introduced in 2015,” said Graphic Whizard. The PT 335SCC Multi converts digitally printed work into finished products while eliminating operator intervention. Now, Xerox customers will be able to pair their Xerox production devices with Graphic Whizard finishing technology to both streamline production and increase overall efficiency. Graphic Whizard had previously signed a full-line distribution agreement with Xerox Canada in 2016 – and that proven success in Canada was the driving force behind the interest from Xerox U.S.

“The Canadian Xerox salespeople experienced a huge amount of success, not only selling Graphic Whizard finishing machines as a standalone solution, but also when it was bundled with a Xerox print engine such as the Versant Series. The Graphic Whizard PT 335SCC Multi gave them a competitive selling advantage that they effectively used to outsell their competitors,” said Chris Harrington, VP of Sales in North America for Graphic Whizard. Max Allen, Dealer Manager for Graphic Whizard in Canada, has worked closely with Xerox since the beginning of the relationship and has also worked diligently to support Xerox’s sales efforts. John Zurowski, Western Canada GM for Xerox added: “Our Graphic Whizard partnership is the strongest partnership we have – and the support surpasses anything we’ve seen from other partners before.”
