“2009 has been a great year for Saudi Xerox, and I thank each one of the team for their tremendous contribution made to Xerox both locally and abroad” said Marcus Childs, Xerox Corporation’s VP Middle East and Africa.

“This has been a result of our excellent relationship with the Olayan group. Furthermore the most important factor in this success is the strong SXL management team, and their long experience, dedication, loyalty, and hard work,” added Childs.
