GM Finishing Appoints Brigal as Distributor for Spain and Portugal
GM Finishing is pleased to announce the appointment of Brigal as its new distributor for Spain and Portugal, strengthening GM’s presence and customer support across both markets.
Founded in 1960, Brigal has more than six decades of experience in the graphic arts industry and has built a strong position across Spain and Portugal. The company combines extensive market knowledge with local sales expertise, technical service and long-standing relationships throughout the printing industry.
As an official HP distributor in Spain and Portugal, Brigal also brings extensive experience with HP Indigo technology and digital label production. This makes the partnership a particularly strong fit for GM Finishing, whose converting and finishing solutions are widely used alongside HP Indigo digital presses.
For Jos Kabouw, Global Sales Manager at GM Finishing, who has worked closely with Brigal in establishing the new partnership, the combination of local expertise and technical knowledge was key:
“Brigal is a very natural fit for GM. They know the Spanish and Portuguese markets extremely well, they have strong relationships with their customers, and they have many years of experience with HP Indigo. That combination is particularly valuable for us because customers increasingly look at printing and finishing as one complete production workflow. With Brigal, we have a partner who understands both sides and can support customers locally from the initial discussion through installation and ongoing service.”
Strengthening Local Support in Spain and Portugal
The appointment strengthens GM’s ability to provide printers and converters in Spain and Portugal with knowledgeable local support while expanding access to GM’s portfolio of label finishing and converting solutions.
Brigal’s established position within the HP Indigo community also creates a strong foundation for helping digital print customers develop their production beyond the press. By combining HP Indigo printing technology with GM finishing and converting solutions, customers can build more integrated workflows focused on productivity, automation, flexibility and profitability.
“We see significant potential in Spain and Portugal,” Kabouw adds. “There is a strong printing and converting industry in both countries, and many companies are investing in digital production and automation. Together with Brigal, we can be much closer to those customers and help them identify the finishing setup that best supports their business and future growth.”
Together, GM Finishing and Brigal will support printers and converters across Spain and Portugal in developing more productive, automated and profitable label production workflows.
