Cherry Hill
Dozens of Philadelphia-area printers, including several in-plant managers, turned out for the grand opening of the new Xerox Color Innovation Center in Cherry Hill, NJ.
Reports on Graph Expo attendance are mixed. Overall attendance was down 12.5 percent over the 2007 show, surpassing 26,000. Yet the number of companies sending buyers to the Chicago show rose to 8,800. And vendors report that those attendees were more serious than in previous years.
"Given the situation in the economy, we weren't sure what to expect at the show," acknowledged Sheryl Pattek, vice president, marketing services, production printing systems, at Océ North America. "However. the traffic [was] very steady. Sunday was the busiest Sunday I can remember in the last five years, and Monday was even busier."
