Edale has formed an exclusive partnership with family run Porter Pac, based in Eichen, Germany.
Porter Pac has a proven background in selling US brand flexographic printing presses across Germany. As well as narrow web and labelling focuses, the company is also a key distributor for slitter rewinder machinery, and so Edale saw it as a strong match.
During April 2013 Jerry Porter, managing director, and son Sean travelled over to Edale’s head office for a meeting with export sales director, Bernhard Grob, to meet and learn more about the product range that the company offers.
Mr Grob said, ‘I feel Porter Pac will be a great company to represent the Edale brand. Both Jerry and Sean are very hands-on with a great reputation alongside a wealth, of technical knowledge which will be invaluable in re-introducing our products to the German market.’
Jerry Porter, managing director of Porter Pac, added, ‘Edale’s capability to provide customers with both high quality workhorses as well as specialised equipment for a particular customers needs, is a key factor in today’s market. Combined with the company’s excellent reputation, we see this as the future for machinery requirements in Germany.’
