t was in August 2009 at Sign Africa in Johannesburg that we managed the mean feat of seling every machine on their exhibition floor and transporting them directly from Sandton Convention Centre to their new owners’ premises. One of those machines, the GCC K72UV had to wait a while due to the Sytech Supplies technical team not having had training on it themselves yet. The Taiwanese technical team that represented the manufacturer at Sign Africa 2009 stayed on a while longer after the exhibition to train our technicians.

Charnia kicked it off with how the company started and how far they’ve come. She ran through a number of slides (that could have been done better since they have access to an entire industry of creatives) that explained briefly the point she was talking about at the time. Then Dyelan went through the changes. The one I like the most is that their website will undergo an overhaul soon. The new one looks like a Wordpress or Joomla site. I love the fact that they’re building a site that plugs into the social tools available online. Dyelan proceeded to explain that the 2010 show will now become a “roadshow’ and will be hosted in Polokwane and Nelspruit as well.

The first order of stock has just arrived at the Durban harbour and is being delivered to the premises of Sytech Supplies as you read this newsletter. Among these arrivals is the latest GCC breakthrough in wide format UV digital print technology. The K72UV digital printer.
