International aspirations for Diamond Dispersions
MANUFACTURER Diamond Dispersions is aiming to grow its presence in markets including Europe, the Far East and the United States.
The Sheffield-based business is a specialist in making and selling water-based pigmented dispersions for the ink-jet ink industry.
It has teamed up with international sales consultant, Shaun Sagar, to help unlock sales potential across the globe.
Mr Sagar first met Diamond’s directors Peter Callahan and Sue Wright at a networking event in Sheffield.
He said: “Diamond Dispersions is a very exciting business. It currently has a small share of a rapidly growing market and that’s what interests me – Diamond has masses of potential.
“The team has made strong progress over the last two years, particularly in terms of export, but they are just beginning to open the highly lucrative, multi-million pound market.”
Mr Callahan added: “Shaun has worked with major international companies and is highly skilled at developing business relationships with clients at high levels, exactly what we need.
“Together we have developed a clear sales strategy that will open the doors to large multi-national print companies. These companies are in the process of developing new technologies for which they will require specialists inks – that’s where we come in.”
The company was named as a winner of a Queen’s Award for Enterprise in international trade earlier this year.
