Johann van der Walt has been appointed Midcomp Azero’s general manager. Before joining the company, he spent 19 years at Nashua Ltd managing specialised print sales. Prior to that, he held key executive roles at organisations like Telkom Business and Panasonic, with time spent at First Technology in between.
‘While I’ve been fortunate to develop deep expertise in guiding cross-functional teams and driving commercial growth over the years, I remain deeply grounded. I simply love working with our customers and feel incredibly passionate about our product offering.
‘Throughout my journey in the tech and print industries, I’ve learned one fundamental truth. A printer is just a piece of hardware, but a seamless workflow is where the real value lies. Hardware is only a tiny piece of the puzzle, and long-term success comes from how we support and manage the entire ecosystem, so our customers can focus completely on what they do best.’
For van der Walt, customers always come first, second and third. He takes pride in diving deep into their unique operational challenges, solving problems with a positive attitude, ensuring that working with him feels like a true partnership rather than a cold corporate transaction.
‘Currently, I am fortunate to be part of an incredibly talented, high-performing team. My main focus is managing and aligning these exceptional internal divisions to build support models that guarantee maximum uptime and productivity for our customers. Together, our team will act as a true catalyst for growth. We are taking industry-leading large format managed print services and making them accessible and affordable for mid-market businesses. I am also deeply committed to cultivating a workplace culture where our team members can genuinely thrive, grow their careers, and feel engaged, because a happy, inspired team is the secret ingredient to taking exceptional care of our customers.’
He is determined to bring his customers a breath of fresh air in the printing industry, ‘Guided by our company slogan ‘Catalyst for growth’, my absolute commitment is to deliver completely tailor-made solutions that fit their exact needs, remove their operational headaches, and make doing business with us seamless, more enjoyable, and more profitable for their bottom line. I look forward to building new relationships and partnerships, bringing real value to the future of our clients’ operations, and proving that their business is always our top priority.’
