EFI Announces Two New Customers

EFI, a world leader in customer-focused digital printing innovation, announced two new print MIS customers - ANRO Inc. of West Chester, Pa., purchased EFI Monarch, and The DATA Group of Companies of Canada selected EFI Pace.

Founded more than 55 years ago, ANRO Inc. is one of the premier full-service commercial printers in the Philadelphia area, providing turnkey printing, mail, fulfillment, and digital communication services.

After reviewing various MIS systems, ANRO choose EFI Monarch to bring efficiency and integrated workflows to its hybrid print environment.

"ANRO was looking for a complete integrated solution from the shop floor through to accounting, with the need to seamlessly handle our digital, conventional, wide-format and direct mail lines of business," said David Spinelli, chief financial officer, ANRO Inc. "Monarch fit these requirements perfectly. The fact the system is JDF certified and is backed by the size and financial strength of EFI, we know we made the right choice to move our business to the next level."

The DATA Group of Companies is Canada's largest and most innovative provider of enterprise document management, and a leader in digital and specialized print, direct marketing and web-enabled solutions. The company purchased EFI Pace to be used initially in seven of its many facilities across Canada - one commercial plant, one all digital facility and five in-plants, all located in Calgary, Alberta.

Steve Galarneau, president, Western Canada, The DATA Group of Companies, said, "EFI Pace was selected after a thorough RFP process. Its powerful capabilities will allow us to bring consistent workflows to these seven locations, and to improve overall efficiency. We plan to use the API kit developed by EFI to customize the system to our unique needs - a capability that our team found superior to the other providers we researched."
