In the issue:
"Giving birth to ambitious corporate goals"

A few months from now, EVOLIS will be celebrating its TENTH YEAR of marketing smart solutions.

Over the past 10 years, continuous innovation, dedicated teamwork and mutual success were EVOLIS’ greatest achievements. Our results provide ample proof of this! EVOLIS succeeded in establishing itself at the forefront of the plastic cards market, and achieved at the global level.

In these tough times, the EVOLIS business model remains sound and robust. It has helped sustain the organization through these dire times, even though year 2009 is the first time that EVOLIS reported a contracted level in activity. However, EVOLIS’ presence in 100+ countries, and in a variety of market segments, was key in helping us sail smoothly through these adverse conditions.

In 2009, we decided to carry on with investing in product innovation (release of 4 new products, overall), and in our infrastructure (new ERP and implementation of a supply chain platform in Singapore, scheduled to go live in 2010). We also strengthened our support to our distribution partners in order to help them go through this turbulent time.

As EVOLIS will shortly turn 10, our objective is to get ourselves back on the track of growth, revitalization and dynamism, giving birth to ambitious corporate goals for the forthcoming 5 years.

We rely upon you to support us in this ambition of achieving our goals and in encouraging our culture of success which will be of mutual benefit.

On behalf of all of us at EVOLIS, thank you, for your valuable support and business, and above all, your trust and confidence in EVOLIS and our products.

Our very best wishes for a prosperous and successful New Year.
 
 


 

"The APAC region remains highly strategic", Evolis Asia Pte Ltd.

2009 has been a difficult year, but also marked by several very positive events, such as our first APAC Partner Conference in April, the opening of our China Sales Office in Shenzhen, the  relocation of both our Singapore and Tokyo operations to new and larger premises and last, but not the least, my move to Singapore.

All this confirms Evolis’ and my personal commitment to the region and our partners, and it is thanks to our joint efforts that we experienced double-digit channel growth in spite of turbulent and unfavorable economic conditions.

This year, our new Warehouse and Logistics centre in Singapore, a strengthened APAC team, together with an experienced and proactive partner network, should provide the necessary foundations to see yet another year of satisfactory results.
The APAC region remains and will remain in the future, highly strategic to our company,

I thank all of those who have contributed to our success so far and look forward to working with you all during many years to come.
