In this article, we would like to give you an insight into a recent company visit we had with Ricoh Europe. Among other things, we would like to share with you some questions we asked the Sales and Marketing Manager Mr. Ké¼sters. But also, we are going to reveal some interesting developments that are coming from Ricoh in near future.

Introduction:

More information about Ricoh Europe B.V. and their products can be found at their homepage.

The Meeting:

Ricoh Europe B.V. is located in Dé¼sseldorf, which is the state capital of the German Federal State - North Rhine-Westphalia.

The CDFreaks staff members Jan S. and Torsten P. had no problems getting there since they both live in the same German Federal State. Now, we would like to continue this article to hear their own words and impressions:

When entering Ricoh, we are welcomed by the Sales & Marketing Manager Mr. Ké¼sters, which we have been in contact with for some time already. It's of course, always exciting to finally meet a correspondence acquaintance in person.

 We entered one of Ricoh's conference rooms and we took the opportunity to take a photo of Ricoh Media product palette:
