Peter Cowan, Procurement Director: “This is another exciting addition to our growing portfolio of brands, providing excellent products and margin opportunities for our core office equipment/IT channel dealer customer base. The package from Pelikan is impressive with significant end-user activity and a rewards programme that will create demand throughout the chain.
