Continuing its expansion in RFID, Domino Printing Sciences has appointed Tony Walsh for its newly created position of business development manager for Europe.Walsh's role will be to provide strategic liaison with different key European customers, including influencers, supermarkets, wholesalers and global legislative bodies, as well as multinational supply chain producers, to effect RFID's adoption and usage across Europe.From his previous various roles Walsh has acquired many years of experience in developing relationships with companies, including major retailers, global legislative bodies like EAN/UCC and multinational supply chain producers, such as GSK, P and G, Unilever and Nestle, said Domino.
He has 20 years' experience in packaging and bar coding applications, with specific involvement in the development of new bar code regulations and best practice documents for ink jet printers and the organisation of major trials for ink jet, label and bar code technologies.
Walsh has also led the market development of ink jet technology and print and apply equipment and has written and conducted bar code training programmes for GSK.
Prior to joining Domino in June 2005 Walsh was the market development manager at Markem Systems.
His expertise in coding has led to him being invited to join the Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Working Group (PSCWG) where he represents the BGMA (British Generics Manufacturers Association) in the implementation of EAN/UCC bar codes in to the UK and European pharmaceutical industries.
He is also one of first six people in the UK to have been awarded Advanced Bar Code Accreditation - e-centre Solution Providers Programme.
Commenting on his appointment, Walsh said: 'RFID technology will herald a new era in product traceability.
...
I am confident that Tony, with his wealth of knowledge and expertise, will propel us to our desired position of being a key RFID provider.' In conjunction with the European market consolidation, Domino has also responded to the increasing demand for RFID technology in the North American market by appointing Gary Page.
