Edale have confirmed the appointment of Phil Jager (pictured left) as Sales Manager for North America. The appointment is an integral part of the company’s plan to grow their global presence.
The North American Market is one of the largest printing markets in the world and continues to grow steadily. Edale itself has experienced strong and growing interest from the region in its range of presses, principally their FL5 Carton Production Line, which has recently seen a significant level of interest and new orders.
Jager’s appointment gives existing and new customers in North America a dedicated Edale Sales expert with a deep rooted background and experience within this region.
Jager comments, “I am delighted to represent Edale as their Sales Manager in North America. I have worked in the print and packaging industry for over twenty-five years. Most recently, I was with Fujifilm as their National Packaging Manager. I have extensive experience in the Folding Carton and Label industries from both a production machinery and a finished goods perspective. I am equally familiar with the U.S. and Canadian marketplace and am excited about the growth opportunities in those markets. I have known Edale for several years and was drawn to their drive and passion for evolving their technology and providing solutions. It has been surprising and exciting to see their impressive operation at their UK Headquarters and see British Manufacturing at its best with the vast array of standard and customised solutions available.”
Darren Pickford, Sales Director, Edale, comments, “The appointment of Phil has created an exciting opportunity for us and our customers. His knowledge of the North American market and its needs are a real asset to the team as he has vast experience in converting, flexographic, lithographic and digital printing. Throughout his career, he has successfully developed strong relationships, understood customer needs, and provided solutions.”
