Zhuhai, China (June 24, 2021)<\/em> \u2014 China-based Ninestar celebrates its \u201cKey to the Door\u201d anniversary on June 28 by announcing a five-pointed strategy for customers, suppliers, partners, staff and friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recognizing twenty-first birthdays had its roots in ancient Greco-Roman traditions. Life was divided into seven-year phases with 21 being viewed as an important \u201ccoming of age\u201d having completed three cycles. In the Middle Ages, a man could become a knight at 21. In many places, it’s still customary to give a \u201ckey\u201d to a 21-year-old symbolizing the opening of the door to maturity. Keys are symbols of independence, responsibility, and possibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Eric Zhang, general manager of Ninestar Image Tech Limited, a subsidiary of the Ninestar Group, its key will open limitless doors for customers, suppliers, partners, staff and friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s hard to believe it\u2019s been 21 years since Ninestar was first established,\u201d said Zhang who has been with the company for 19 of those years. \u201cWe have enjoyed many successes and withstood our share of challenging times as well.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zhang said Ninestar has emerged all the stronger for it. \u201cWe owe our success to you, our clients, vendors, partners, staff and friends. Thank you for your confidence, your patronage, and your friendship.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMost know our vision for Ninestar is to be the eminent, high\u2013tech service provider in the printer and consumables industry and to build a globally renowned trusted brand,\u201d he said. \u201cHowever, the \u2018coming of age\u2019 demands we take a more mature view than just obtaining corporate success. Turning 21 gives us the opportunity to fulfill our responsibility for society; provide exceptional service for our customers; help realize the dreams of our employees, and create values for our shareholders. This is our mission.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Five-pointed Strategy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ninestar \u201ckey\u201d to opening limitless doors, unveiled on June 28, includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Passing on its deeper experience in OEM printer technologies and services with industry customers;<\/li>
  2. Opening a true \u201cone-stop-shop\u201d experience with a wider range of new and existing products and services;<\/li>
  3. Delivering consistent quality, non-infringing and bespoke supplies solutions;<\/li>
  4. Solving frustrating problems caused by OEM firmware updates; and<\/li>
  5. Taking a greater level of responsibility and leadership for the environment, needy communities, and staff.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    As a mature player in the printer and imaging supplies industry Ninestar has the \u201ckey to unlock\u201d this five-pointed strategy for customers, suppliers, partners, staff and friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The company is the only industry player to be an international hardware device manufacturer while at the same time being a leading third-party supplies vendor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    It has acquired deep OEM expertise and an understanding of printer technologies. This enables Ninestar to better understand the working principles of each component in the printer system. In turn, this means it will help find the balance point of matching parts and pass on that knowledge through supplies that are comparable with OEM quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
