Avanti Finishes Fiscal Year with Record Revenue

Press release from the issuing company

Avanti Computer Systems Limited, a leading provider of Print MIS and Web-to-Print solutions, today announced record revenue for fiscal 2012 which ended Aug 31st . Fiscal 2012 was Avanti's best year ever and marked the tripling of its size since the three partners took over ownership in 2004. Avanti ended its fourth quarter with significant sales of its Print MIS system into all market segments including digital, large format, and traditional offset printing. Avanti's record growth can be attributed to printers investing in software that provides productivity gains, helps them grow their business with tools to increase sales and marketing effectiveness.
 
Avanti is pleased to welcome many new customers aboard in Q4 including Generation Printing in Vancouver, BC, Advantage Direct in Fort Wayne, IN, Pressworx in Carrollton, TX , Wingpress in Framingham, MA, Shelter Mutual Insurance in Columbia, MO, and Copy.com in Houston, TX, amongst many others.
 
In addition, the company has had a very busy fourth quarter as it took ten customers live with Avanti's Print MIS including, Clark County School District, IHS, Gulf Printing, Allpro, T.Rowe Price, HCA and Harbour Printing and Distribution Ltd.
 
"I need to do more jobs just to keep revenue at the same level as last year. That means my sales team has to be very focused on my top customers and selling my most profitable products. My job is to make sure they have the tools to do that," says Kevin Holiday, VP of Sales & Marketing at Harbour Printing and Distribution Ltd.  "Avanti provides them with that platform."
 
"Printers are continuing to invest in improving their sales and marketing initiatives in order to better position themselves to offer a more diverse range of products and services," says Patrick Bolan, President and CEO of Avanti. "Even though the market continues to be challenging we've had record customer growth, further demonstrating printer's commitment to ensuring that they have the technology in place to better service their customers and position themselves for future growth."
 
Avanti will be launching its next release of its software (Version 12.4) at Graph Expo in Chicago this October. Version 12.4 is Avanti's most significant release in the past ten years and includes JDF integration into Neopost's GMC Inspire software as well as Avanti Advanced Fulfillment, recipient of a 2012 Graph Expo Must See'em award.
