ADDISON, IL –- June 24, 2003 - Francotyp-Postalia, Inc. (FP Mailing Solutions), a world-class mailroom solutions provider, announced its recognition as the Manufacturer of The Year by the Association of Independent Mailing Equipment Dealers (AIMED), a strong and growing network of mailing, shipping and office automation specialists.

The award commends FP Mailing Solutions for being an industry leader and for its continued support of the AIMED organization.

In 2002, FP Mailing Solutions supplied AIMED with financial support to conduct a Mailing Equipment Quota Index (MEQI) study. The MEQI study produced critical data that gave both manufacturers and dealers valuable insight into potential marketing capabilities by county across the U.S. The study focused specifically on areas with a strong interest and need for mailing equipment products, including postage meters, inserters, folders, mailing scales and address printers.

“We are again honored to receive this special industry award from the Association of Independent Mailing Equipment Dealers,” said Larry Turner, President FP Mailing Solutions. “The Manufacturer of the Year award is truly a testament of our support and contributions to the success of AIMED and its members, and our belief in the independent dealer distribution system.” “AIMED selected FP Mailing Solutions for this special award based on its continued promotion of the dealer channel, its demonstration of support for AIMED and its financial contribution to the MEQI study,” said Sanders. “We are proud to honor FP Mailing Solutions along with three other manufacturers this year who all showed true dedication to our association.”
