Manish Malhotra, country head at Marks Hitech Print Technologies, said, “The company aims to secure a million dollar turnover in its first year of operations and will have subsequent growth aimed at 23-27% year-on-year.

Our aim is also to be closer to our existing distributors and customers to provide them with complete service support for all the products. We also want to ensure local stocking of goods which earlier were imported, again to benefit the end customer with shorter lead times.”

According to Marks Hitech Print Technologies, the company’s goal is to first come closer to the customers and set pace in services and solutions for waterless printing segment.

Besides the waterless printing solutions, the company aims to setup a knowledge hub for waterless printing technology and is already in talks with print technology institutes who will help them arrange various lectures, literature and articles on the topic.

Haroon Reshamvala, vice president-international sales at Marks Group, said, “Waterless technology enables printing industry to reduce the environmental footprint of offset printing machines at significantly lower cost than other alternatives. By working with the Doshi Group, Marks is confident to have the winning combination which will enable the industry to realise environmental benefits.”

The new company Marks Hitech Print technologies will cater to print firms in India, Sri Lanka, Nepal and Bangladesh.
