Len Taylor Joins KBA UK Sheetfed Presses Sales Team
Drupa Innovations Prove ‘Simply Irresistible’
KBA (UK) Ltd.has appointed Len Taylor to its sheetfed press sales team. The announcement comes in the wake of one of the most impressive litho press presentations ever seen at Drupa where the KBA press theatre featured new technology-rich, higher-performance models from throughout its RAPIDA range.
Len Taylor has worked in print since leaving school, moving from machine operator to press demonstrator and technical support before beginning a long and successful career in press sales, most notably with Komori (seven years) and since 2005, with manroland – always in the southern regions. He comments:
“I was very impressed with the presses released by KBA at the Drupa exhibition and I’m very excited by the prospect of introducing such a wide range of market-ready models – from the B2 RAPIDA 76 and B1 105s and 106s up to the Larger Formats– to printers across all sectors in the South West region. It’s clearly the case that KBA has taken the initiative in litho press development and printers adopting these technologies are going to have a significant advantage over the rest of the field.”
Christian Knapp, Managing Director of KBA (UK) Ltd. says:
“We are very pleased to welcome Len to our sheetfed presses sales team. His expertise and experience will prove invaluable in helping printers to examine the opportunities presented by our new generation of higher performance presses so that they can redefine their business models and build for future success.”
In a reorganisation of its southern sales areas, Len Taylor is to represent KBA in the South West to Oxford and Milton Keynes in the North, western Greater London and most of Sussex while Steven Gorrard-Smith now takes responsibility for East Anglia, eastern Greater London and Kent.
