Eddie Tucker, Managing Director of Liyu UK, commented, “Appointing someone with Wes’ experience and track record is exactly what Liyu UK needs as we look to develop our presence in the UK further. The industry is becoming increasingly aware of the quality, value, and breadth of our product range, which has resulted in rapid sales growth. Wes has the knowledge and skills to build on this momentum and take us to the next level.”
Wes Small has been appointed to leverage his expertise to drive Liyu UK’s growth and build its market presence. “Liyu’s potential in the UK market is huge,” he said. “My main role is to build strong relationships with customers and partners and to develop our market awareness, perception, and reputation.”

“I am very excited about what can be achieved with Liyu UK,” Wes continued. “I saw at Viscom the sheer quality of the products and the impressive technological advances continually being developed. We have an incredibly comprehensive range of products, meaning we can offer entry-level machines for companies looking to break into digital printing for the first time, all the way up to machines capable of printing 900m²/hr. We can offer a solution for every kind of print service provider.”
Eddie concluded, “I believe we have appointed Wes at exactly the right time. We are also building our service, support, and marketing teams, moving to new premises, and developing a new website. We have a fantastic range of printers and cutters that are proving to be innovative and reliable solutions for the industry, and now we have the infrastructure to support further growth over the coming years. It’s exciting times for Liyu UK.”
