REHOVOT, ISRAEL—November 25, 2014—Landa Digital Printing has announced the appointment of Marc Schillemans as European (EMEA) vice president of sales and the appointment of Kobi Ulmer as vice president of field operations.


Schillemans’ digital print experience and proven results-driven approach will bolster Landa’s sales ramp-up and market penetration.
