B2B: European Office Systems & Direct Printer Service GmbH

European Office Systems (www.eosprint.com) with offices in three countries, and Direct Printer Service (www.directprinterservice.com) with an office in Austria, are market leaders in the B2B telemarketing sales of high quality and environmentally friendly toners and cartridges for print and fax machines.

Throughout the years, 100,000 European Companies have put their trust in EOS and DPS and their customer base is growing with as many as 1,000 new company customers on a monthly basis.

Since the start, these Telemarketing companies have grown considerably and are now operating successfully in:

• Austria (Direct Printer Service, with an office in Linz)
• Belgium (sales from EOS in Holland and France)
• France (EOS, with an office in Nice)
• Germany (EOS, with an office in Hamburg)
• Luxemburg (sales from EOS in France)
• Netherlands (EOS, with an office in Rotterdam)
• Switzerland (sales from EOS-Germany and DPS-Austria)

The company is not only involved in the B2B segment via Telemarketing sales. Sharing the same ERP system, EOS and DPS recently launched their online portals for the existing 100,000-strong business customer database, where clients are able to, “using record few clicks", order products automatically and, by doing so, save valuable time and efficiencies.

Since the B2B reorder portals of www.directprinterservice.com and www.eosprint.com require sophisticated functionality such as a scalable & web-based Finance System & Advanced Purchase & Inventory Functionalities (both company groups share the same warehouse in Hamburg for quality & for overall efficiency reasons), also called an ERP-system, the next step in the expansion strategy was to take step & offer the high quality & environmentally friendly products to the consumer market.

All companies share the same backbone (ERP system).

For this purpose, www.printle.com was launched during the summer of 2010. Printle.com is an ecommerce portal with an ecological approach targeting the European consumer as well as small & medium-sized businesses.

Additional costs for developing, launching & running Printle.com were held to a minimum since all functionality has already been developed, and is working to perfection, at www.eosprint.com & www.directprinterservice.com.

The first countries where Printle went live during 2010 were Austria, Germany and the Netherlands. France was thereafter launched, followed by Belgium (in two languages), Sweden and the United Kingdom. Other European countries will follow during the later half of 2010.
