Printechs

What Printechs does

Printechs (legal entity Printechs, Advanced Printing Trading Company) is a privately held Saudi Arabian systems integrator and value-added reseller, headquartered in Riyadh with regional offices in Jeddah and Dammam, operating since 2002. The company runs three divisions. The Industrial Solutions division distributes and integrates Hitachi inkjet, laser, and labeling systems for marking and coding on production lines, alongside packaging equipment (carton sealers) and industrial weighing systems (CAS, Hiweigh). The Retail Solutions division provides Datalogic automatic data capture products (fixed and handheld scanners, wireless scanners, mobile computers, barcode labelers, price checkers), RFID-based Electronic Article Surveillance, and a portfolio of electronic scales (label printing, bench, price computing, POS interface, counting, crane, floor, and micro). The Software Solutions division resells and implements ERPNext ERP, third-party POS systems (Retail Pro, Silver POS) and its own AnimoRetail cloud POS with MADA, STC Pay, and ecommerce integrations, plus custom software development (web, iOS, Android, system integration).

The technology stack is multi-vendor and integration-led rather than proprietary: core platforms are Hitachi (industrial marking), Datalogic (auto-ID and factory automation), ERPNext (ERP), and AnimoRetail (cloud POS), with integrations into STC Pay, MADA, WeChat CRM, and weighing scale brands such as ESSE and CAS. The company is also Datalogic's authorized Official Repair Centre for Saudi Arabia, providing authorized service franchise for data capture hardware across the Kingdom.

Revenue is generated through a sales-led, direct enterprise go-to-market model with multi-year contracts and contact-based pricing. Revenue streams span hardware sales (industrial and retail equipment), recurring subscription and licensing (software), professional services (custom development and integration), and after-sales support (maintenance, repair, technical services). Customers are enterprise organizations across industrial manufacturing, retail operations (including self-checkout and store-level data capture), and transportation/logistics; specific customer logos are not publicly disclosed beyond a single testimonial reference. The company is founder/owner-operated with no disclosed external investors, parent company, or M&A activity.
