“We have been using RICOH for over a decade now and my late husband, Hitesh Bhai was awarded by RICOH in 2013. He had always thought 10 years ahead of the industry. His inspiration helps us in maintaining this goodwill at KCL. I believe in the same process and am always ready to take the risk. As per his vision, we are trying to carry forward the legacy of the company to take a quantum leap and disrupt the printing industry.” She added.
