Anderson & Vreeland Canada to Provide Full Line of Tesa Tape Products
MISSISSAUGA, ON (PRWEB) June 20, 2018 -- The full line of tesa tape inc’s specialized products for flexographic printing is now available through Anderson & Vreeland Canada. This provides flexographic printers across Canada rapid access to all of tesa’s mounting and splicing tapes.
Key Drivers
Among the drivers of this initiative are narrow web, tag, label, and flexible packaging producers with operations on both sides of the border. Printers require a complete range of reliable, consistent options for flexo mounting and splicing tapes, regardless of where labels or packages are produced.
“We view our markets not as Canada or the U.S., but as North America, and seek partners, such as tesa, that share that lens”,” said Sean Sawa, Anderson & Vreeland Director of Sales for Canada. “We have seen very strong year-over-year growth with tesa in Canada for the past four years, which closely mirrors our own growth trajectory, and this agreement helps ensure continued growth in this market. While we are expanding our portfolio of solutions, we are also increasing service and support for customers with operations on both sides of the border.”
“The new agreement is a natural extension of the two companies’ long-standing relationship in the U.S. that has gained Anderson & Vreeland tesanet status as a top-tier distribution partner,” adds Chuck Doyle, North American Sales manager for tesa tape.
Enhanced availability
Under the agreement, tesa’s lines of purpose-specific tapes will be stocked in Anderson & Vreeland’s Canadian warehouses, facilitating prompt delivery to flexo shops throughout Canada. This significantly shortens the supply chain for Canadian shops and enhances tesa’s presence in the Canadian market. Similarly, flexo shops doing business in both nations have full access to tesa’s mounting and splicing solutions from tesa, regardless of their location.
“The two companies will work closely to define and anticipate each customer’s needs to ensure products are in stock, ready to ship, and can even be delivered on a pre-determined schedule, based on established customer requirements,” explained Mr. Sawa.
Aligned strategies
The new agreement also reflects the closely aligned operating strategies of the two companies. Both focus on learning about and understanding customers’ specific challenges and problem areas, then providing the best possible solution. This approach raises tapes—often thought of as commodities—to being part of a complete solution for successful and profitable flexographic printing, and further helps distinguish tesa’s products and approach to business.
“We are excited about the added horsepower working with Anderson & Vreeland brings to us in Canada,” said Mr. Doyle. “Business doesn’t stop at the border and we are looking forward to providing Canadian flexographers with the same level of technical sales, service and support we have provided in the U.S.”
