Paris, June 16, 2022
Quadient (Euronext Paris: QDT), a leader in
helping businesses create meaningful customer connections through
digital and physical channels, announced today the completion of
the transaction for the divestment of its Graphics activities in
the Nordic countries to the print company, Ricoh.
As part of its ‘Back to Growth’ strategy,
Quadient remains fully committed to accelerate the growth of its
strategic software and parcel locker solutions, driven respectively
by the acceleration of business processes digitalization and the
growth of e-commerce. As a result, Quadient has been reshaping its
portfolio by divesting non-core activities within its Additional
Operations. Quadient’s Graphics business in the Nordic countries
mainly consists in the distribution of printing and print finishing
business solutions in Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland. The team
accounts for 23 employees across the region, who will be
integrating Ricoh’s teams in their respective countries.
The operation will also contribute to reduce
further the contribution of Additional Operations and allow
Quadient to focus fully on its major geographies and strategic
solutions.
Geoffrey Godet, Chief Executive Officer of
Quadient, commented: “Through the sale of our Graphics activity in
the Nordics, we have almost completed the reshaping of our company
into a streamlined business, focusing exclusively on our
Mail-Related, Parcel Locker and Intelligent Communication
Automation solutions. As in our previous divestments, we are
committed to conducting our activities in a responsible manner, and
I am pleased that we found in Ricoh the best possible home to
support our customers and teams in this new phase of their
journey.”
Eef de Ridder, Vice President, Graphic
Communications Group, Ricoh Europe, says: “This is an exciting
acquisition for Ricoh. We are seeing an increased demand for high
quality, reliable finishing capabilities as customers realize the
many applications of wide format as well as inkjet and toner

are also looking for end to end integrated solutions. With decades
of experience in this area, Ricoh is perfectly placed to support
print innovators who are more ambitious than ever to pursue new
applications and revenue streams.”
