Xeikon appoints Les Rafferty to commercial sales team

Xeikon has strengthened its UK commercial sales team after appointing Les Rafferty to the division.

Rafferty has previously held roles at Friedheim International, Domino Printing Sciences and Video Jet, and will now work within Xeikon's document printing markets.

He said: "I have enjoyed a number of sales roles handling a variety of digital print-based product.

"I am looking forward to transferring those sales skills into the digital press arena, where I firmly believe that Xeikon products provide a significant opportunity for printers that are seeking high-quality, colour-capable web fed products."

Patrick Van Baelen, European sales director of Xeikon’s document printing portfolio, added: "I am convinced that Les will prove to be a tremendous asset to the team, and will further strengthen Xeikon’s presence on the ground in the UK."
