Kyocera Document Solutions America Inc. announced that Copystar will be replaced by the Kyocera brand as of June 30.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Until now the Copystar brand has been a sales division selling Kyocera-made devices under the Copystar name. This strategic decision demonstrates the organization\u2019s ambition to combat uncertainty in the business landscape by further strengthening its brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also represents the next step of the long-term strategy that was unveiled as part of the new brand launch in 2019, a strategy that has since seen the Kyocera brand go from strength to strength.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“During uncertain times, unity is what defines resilient organizations,\u201d says Oscar S\u00e1nchez, president and CEO at Kyocera Document Solutions America. \u201cThere is little doubt that the conversion of Copystar to Kyocera will make us a stronger organization. Rather than dedicating resources to multiple brands, we can now concentrate all our efforts on elevating the Kyocera brand to new heights.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the transition to Kyocera underway, S\u00e1nchez believes that Copystar dealers have every right to be excited about this new chapter. \u201cThe Kyocera brand is one of the most respected in the world when it comes to innovation. The trust in our quality has been hard-earned across decades. Copystar dealers can now leverage it to their advantage.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brand recognition is a crucial aspect of marketing, and Copystar dealers now have a tremendous opportunity to add a new dimension to their portfolios with the Kyocera brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur new brand launch in 2019 marked the start of an exciting new chapter for Kyocera, and Copystar becoming part of the Kyocera brand represents an important milestone on this strategic roadmap,\u201d says Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00eda Est\u00e9banez, vice president of corporate marketing. \u201cBy fusing resources, energy, expertise, and experience, we are primed to strengthen the Kyocera brand even further while providing Copystar dealers brand-new opportunities to grow their business.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conversion process is now underway and will conclude on June 30.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
