Stellenbosch-based Cape Office Machines has won Dealer of the Year Award from Xerox distributor Bytes Document Solutions. The award was presented at the 2014 Golden Globe Awards to recognise the company’s high achievers who have exceeded their targets and attained high levels of sales performance.

“We are delighted with Cape Office Machines’ achievement and its contribution to the Xerox brand,” says Ronnie Oeschger, divisional director of Xerox Indirect Channels of Bytes Document Solutions.

“Cape Office Machines marks its 32nd year of operations. The company’s dedication and commitment to our business has been unwavering since 1982 when it opened its doors as the first Authorised Xerox Dealer in South Africa.

“The focus of this family-managed business has always been on building sustainable, long-term relationships with its clients. We value our longstanding relationship with the company and congratulate Edgar and Marco Ortelee and their teams for the excellent level of service they provide to Xerox customers. We have an open-door policy here,” says Ortelee.

“Whether it’s an existing client with a query, or a prospective client who is thinking of using our services, everyone is welcome to come around for a cup of coffee and a chat about their needs. It is that level of customer service that has built our business into what it is today. We are exceptionally proud to have won this prestigious award in recognition of the work we do.”
