Xerox International Group has appointed Ben Gale as general manager sales and marketing for the company`s operations across 67 countries in Africa and the Middle East.
"Xerox has always had a heritage across Africa of industry-leading technology and solutions. This will be underlined again in November when SA becomes one of the first countries in the world to introduce the Xerox iGen 3 Digital Production Press, just one of nearly 30 products introduced this year alone," commented Gale.
"Additionally, we are expanding our customer-led consulting and managed services, both directly and through our network of world-class partners."
Gale continued: "Our customers are demanding increased returns on investments from their IT suppliers. It is through this combination of people, process and technology that Xerox truly delivers. Where technology is now a commodity, information is the competitive advantage and the creator of value. Managing that is Xerox`s core strength."
Prior to this assignment, Gale was Xerox Turkey sales director where he accelerated growth in the printer business by 300% and in paper and supplies by 80%. In an 11-year career with Xerox, Gale first worked with Xerox UK, in roles covering production printing and graphic arts, as well as facilities management. Gale holds a master`s degree in information technology from Manchester University, UK, and is a graduate of the Xerox `Leading for the Future` programme.
