Publidisa Outlines Book Opportunity for Xerox Premier Partners
Patricia Pasadas of Publidisa (see photos below) came to the
Xerox Graphic Arts Premier Partners meeting in Dortmund, Germany,
as part of drupa, to tell the story of her company’s success
in meeting the needs of publishers and authors. She left with
more than a dozen potential business partners. That’s what happens
when you ask a room full of 75 leading digital print providers
to be partners in an innovative, international business. Publidisa,
based in Seville, Spain, and with additional presence in Mexico
and Argentina, provides a unique collection of publishing offerings:
digital book manufacturing, eBook file generation and eCommerce
outsourcing. “No one was offering solutions in these areas, so
we went for it,” Pasadas said. The result: rapid growth the last
few years. Pasadas described three paths of future growth for
the company: expanding its regional reach for publishing in Spanish,
building a capability for publishing in English, and then taking
on the rest of the world’. The firm’s preferred approach: growth
through local partnerships. In the face of rapidly escalating
energy costs, she said, “We want an international network to
produce books close to the point of need, and avoid high shipping
costs and delays.” That’s when she gave an open invitation to
attendees — Xerox Premier Partners from developing markets, such
as Africa, Eastern Europe, Latin America and the Middle East — to
explore becoming a partner of Publidisa. By evening, she had
business cards from 14 companies.
The Xerox Premier Partners — a global network of 727 leading, Xerox-equipped
print providers — is dedicated to developing new business opportunities through
knowledge sharing, networking and business sharing. At the meeting in Dortmund,
Publidisa had the trifecta. Randy Swope Developing Markets Organization Premier
