The investment forms part of Pyramid’s ongoing commitment to providing customers with a reliable, responsive, and efficient delivery service. The additional vehicles will support the movement of rigid sheets and roll media across Pyramid’s national distribution network. Finished in Pyramid’s signature blue fleet livery, the new vehicles will operate across the UK, supporting deliveries from the company’s five branches and providing additional capacity as Pyramid continues to grow its customer base and product offering. Commenting on the investment, Dominic Gallagher, group transport manager, says: “Logistics is a vital part of the service we provide and continued investment in our fleet helps us maintain the standards our customers expect. “These five new vehicles give us greater capacity and resilience across the network, while also putting the Pyramid brand in front of customers across the country every day.” Pyramid Display Materials is a wholesale distributor of signmaking supplies, wide-format printing media, and industrial substrates. Founded in 2002, the company was acquired by the global distributor Grimco in 2021. The company is a prominent stockist for brands including Avery Dennison and Mactac. Its range includes flat sheet materials including extruded acrylic sheets, Alupanel aluminium composites, foam PVC, and Correx corrugated plastic. It also offers eco-friendly papers and display boards from Dispa and Swedboard, alongside structural options like the XL Impact recyclable board. Pyramid Display are also a distributor of hardware solutions including HP’s Latex wide-format digital printers and ink systems. Earlier this year, Pyramid Display announced the appointment of Bev Petre to its UK team, who was hired to play a key part in supporting the company’s continued expansion in the Midlands. Petre arrived to the role with extensive experience in the sign, graphics, and display sectors, with the appointment forming part of Pyramid’s wider expansion plans both nationally and internationally. The new MAN vehicles will operate across the company’s five UK branches Canon United campaign unites company's full product portfolio Hardware and solutions provider, Canon UK & Ireland, has announced a new campaign called Canon United which aims to bring together Canon’s full portfolio of solutions, including hardware, software, services, media, and consumables. The campaign, which carries a football theme with the use of “united” and a team emblem, was launched at Canon UK and Ireland’s first Leadership Summit. The summit was put together so senior business leaders could come together to discuss how organisations can improve performance and resilience in lieu of the world’s rapid changes in technology. The summit explored themes like the future of work, cybersecurity, and AI adoption with experts like Richard Watson, Sarah Armstrong-Smith, Dr Cath Bishop, and Quentyn Taylor sharing advice and insights from various sectors of work and industry. With a wide array of solutions, Canon has continued to update and push all parts of its portfolio over the past few years, while other manufacturers have bowed out of certain markets. This latest campaign suggests the company wishes to simplify its broad offering and bring more of its departments together. “Built around the four principles of a united team, being match day ready, ongoing support, and a shared commitment, the football analogy reflects a simple message: that every part of a successful team has a distinct role, but the strongest performance comes when they work together,” says Canon. The company also says the campaign shows how connecting print, document workflow, and information management solutions can help organisations to automate processes and strengthen security and efficiency. The campaign looks to bring together Canon’s full end-to-end portfolio from “image capture to image output”. Talking about the campaign, Khalid Aziz, marketing and commercial planning director at Canon UK & Ireland, says: “Why football? Because the best teams succeed when the individuals within it come together as one. Everyone knows the role they need to play, but they also understand how they can support and work alongside each other to create a stronger, more robust team. “We’ve built a starting line-up that works together so customers can spend less time managing their kit and more time focusing on winning. Canon United is about giving our customers and our partners the team around them to keep moving forward.” Canon’s new campaign is built around four principles of being a united team By Jonathan Pert By David Osgar
