Following two recent sales of the Highcon Euclid, Highcon has appointed Paul Chandonnet to the role of sales manager, North America, effective from 3 March, 2014.

Mr Chandonnet is a highly experienced sales manager with more than 20 years’ experience selling into the Graphic Arts, Printing and Packaging Industries.  Mr Chandonnet has held several sales and business development leadership positions, most recently as director of business development for Anro, a Philadelphia-based full-service print and marketing service provider and the first North American Highcon Euclid customer.

Prior to that role, he held sales management positions at EFI, OneVision, Vio and Creo/Kodak.  He is a graduate of Rochester Institute of Technology with a degree in Printing Technology and Applied Computer Science.

Mr Chandonnet said, ‘Upon seeing the Euclid in operation within Anro and the immediate value-added opportunities it created for our customers, I knew I wanted to sell it! I am eager to join the Highcon team and work with companies across North America to help them embrace this unique digital finishing technology and the benefits it brings.’

Chris Baker, vice president sales and business development, said, ‘There is no question that Paul’s enthusiasm and first-hand experience gained at Anro will make him a valuable addition to our team and help new customers understand the considerable benefits of our solution.’
