Canon confirms commitment to MENA region with CME Partner Conference in Tunisia

The 5 day conference will see representatives converge from across the MENA region to Tunisia to learn more about upcoming Canon Consumer Imaging (CCI) and Canon Business Solutions (CBS) products.

The conference signals the company's ongoing commitment to the Middle East and North Africa region.

'Canon is proud to hold our annual conference for partners in the Middle East and Africa this year in Tunisia, which is an increasingly important market to us. The African region is growing in importance every year, and last year we saw very strong growth figures for our sales in the region.'

'Canon's success has been built on many factors, including the service we offer, our product range but most of all, our ongoing innovation programme, ensuring that we produce leading world class technology across our entire product range. We will continue to develop innovative ways to serve our customers especially in a high-growth, demanding market such as the MENA region,' said Mr. Bertil Widmark, Managing Director, Canon Middle East.

Topics to be covered at the CME conference include upcoming Canon product launches, marketing strategies for the region, along with an update of current sales performance and Canon's share of market.

The conference is designed to help CME partners gain valuable insights into the development of new channels and development plans in North Africa along with the opportunity for CME partners to meet one on one with Canon representatives.

'We hope that this year's conference will help our regional partners to position themselves to take advantage of the emerging opportunities within this rapidly expanding market,' concluded Mr. Bertil Widmark.
