Konica Minolta announces new partnership
February 18, 2021
Konica Minolta Business Solutions (UK) Ltd announced its new partnership with Wrexham-based business systems and MFD (Multi-Function Devices) specialist reseller Rawson Digital Ltd.
The company said that with a particularly strong market presence in North Wales and North West England, Rawson Digital is perfectly placed to partner with, bringing its solutions to a broad range of customers across various vertical sectors.
Reflecting upon the new partnership, Vaughn Rawson, Managing Director and Founder of Rawson Digital stated: “Konica Minolta has a well-deserved reputation for quality products and expert support, so when the opportunity arose to become a partner we were very keen to do so. A number of our employees, including myself, have previously worked for Konica Minolta, so we were very aware of the opportunities and benefits of a partnership. We have been very impressed by the integrity and clarity of the proposed relationship, which rightly puts a great onus on looking after customers.”
With a dedicated team of 20 professionals, Rawson Digital is an impressive success story for a business with humble beginnings, initially based in a back bedroom at the tail end of the last Recession in 2012. Vaughn credits much of the success of his fast-growing firm on the fact it was founded on the unwavering principles of honesty, integrity, and a passion for supporting customers.

The new partnership with Konica Minolta has come at a highly opportune time, as Rawson elaborated: “Like all businesses, we have faced challenges this year from the disruption, but our sales have now returned to pre-UK Lockdown levels and we are growing our team to meet the challenges ahead. Konica Minolta has already shown us a clear partnership commitment and we know it delivers the right selection of products and service for our customers, as they adjust to the new ways of working.”
The benefits of working with local reseller are clear for Konica Minolta too, as Neil Hamilton, UK Channel Development Manager commented: “Rawson Digital is a very well run business which has carved out its place in the market and continues to review demand, providing exactly what customers need and want. We share a common goal and strength of reliability and a focus on forward-thinking technology, which makes us a perfect fit as partners.”
Hamilton added: “Rawson Digital has the market presence to reassure customers that they are getting the best options and service on the market. Looking to the future, we have developed highly low-cost and scalable Workflow Solutions which are perfectly placed to support customers looking to transition from print systems to digitalisation. In partnership with Rawson Digital, we are able to provide a broad customer base with all the tools needed to find the ideal solution for their needs. We are delighted to be working with such a centre of excellence in the heart of North Wales.”
Cameron Mitchell, Partner Channel Business Unit Leader at Konica Minolta Cameron also commented: “As Konica Minolta looks to scale its Channel business it is vital that we partner with businesses that share our vision & principles. We are delighted to welcome Rawson Digital to Konica Minolta and look forward to a long and mutually rewarding relationship”
Looking to the future of the business and the partnership with Konica Minolta, Rawson concluded: “Konica Minolta gives us plenty of scope to offer our customers the best in print solutions, but equally we can also deliver and support enhanced digital Workflow Solutions to those that want to take this route. In an unsettled economic climate, we know our customers will want to get not only the best prices, but also the best support for their investment, which is exactly where we started as a business and where we continue to excel.”
