Albert’s primary objective will be building a well-structured global sales organisation with a strong customer focus that will be able to handle Colorgate’s future growth and new product offerings, the company said in a media statement.

“All of my previous roles had a connection to Colorgate’s field of activity. I have been working in conventional and digital textile printing, sign and display, commercial and packaging printing.

I am looking forward to applying my knowledge, to optimising the potential of the sales team and to helping even more customers and prospects to find the Colorgate solution that is right for them,” Albert said.
