New Partnership Solidifies LeadershipTeam at Metrofuser

New Partnership Solidifies LeadershipTeam at Metrofuser
Laser printer parts manufacturer Metrofuser (www.metrofuser.com) announced that it has implemented a new partnership agreement between co- founder and current Vice President of Marketing and Logistics, Will DeMuth, and current Chief Financial Officer, Eric Katz. Todd Katz, former Vice President of Sales has sold his share of the company. "Todd played an integral role in starting this company," Demuth remarked in a statement issued to employees. "His talents and hard work were vital to the early success of Metrofuser. We all wish him the best of success in his future endeavors."
With the new partnership agreement, Eric Katz will become Co- President with DeMuth while continuing his role as Chief Financial Officer. DeMuth will continue his role as Marketing and Logistics lead. The new partnership is intended to solidify the leadership team at Metrofuser. Mark Makuch remains the Director of Operations and Ken Lang had already stepped in and taken over Todd Katz's position as head of the sales department in 2007. "With Eric as Co-President, we can strengthen the foundation that has made Metrofuser the world-class printer parts manufacturer that it is today," DeMuth stated. "We will continue to improve upon that legacy and provide our customers with the best solutions that the industry has to offer."
Since 2005, Eric Katz has been instrumental in establishing the momentum that Metrofuser has created for itself. Katz's entrepreneurial experience began as co-founder and Director of Research of Jumar Technologies, a New York-based software company. Katz, a graduate of Yale University, also spent several years teaching math, English and creative writing at a public school in the South Bronx and currently sits on the Board of Advisors for the Bronx Academy of Letters.
Katz joined Metrofuser and his diverse skill set and versatility have been invaluable in Metrofuser's rapid development. He has helped steer the ship through three consecutive years of 60+ percent revenue growth and proved his executive value by taking the lead role in Metrofuser's expansion to the West Coast, where David Burchell currently runs Metrofuser’s Santa Ana distribution center. "I don't think we could have pulled off opening our new facility in southern California without Eric's leadership and meticulousness," Demuth said. "There are so many operational, logistical and administrative challenges associated with taking a successful small business and making it a national entity, but with the team we've assembled here, I feel confident that we can handle anything."
Next on the horizon is expanding the production, engineering and distribution facilities in New Jersey. "I look forward to this partnership with Will," Eric Katz added, “and I’m really excited by the opportunities that our relocation will afford us. In a larger facility, we’ll be able to service more customers and explore more markets, build our dedicated team and maintain our obsessive commitment to our customers’ satisfaction."
What else will this new partnership bring? Katz and DeMuth both agree that Metrofuser must continue to explore strategic partnership and acquisition opportunities, launch incentive programs for employees and partners, and more. DeMuth added, "We will, of course, continue with our never-ending new product developments and commitment to product quality."

Metrofuser Enters its 5th Year

Metrofuser Enters its 5th Year
From a basement to “better than OEM,” Metrofuser’s growth continues

September, 2007, marked the onset of Metrofuser's 5th year. Metrofuser, a printer parts remanufacturing company that got its start refurbishing HP LaserJet printer fusers in a co-founder's basement, has grown into a multi-million dollar national corporation that has built its reputation on pioneering “better-than-OEM” remanufactured printer parts.

“I admit, even from those humble beginnings, I have said that our mission isn’t to be the biggest – just the best at serving our customers and employees,” said Will DeMuth, Vice President of Marketing and Logistics, “As we enter our 5th year, and I take a moment to reflect on how far we have come, I truly believe that we have accomplished being the best at serving our customers, and it is only because of our dedicated and talented team here at Metrofuser.”

From out of the basement came a company that got a shot in the arm when they moved to its current facility in Roselle, New Jersey in March of 2004.

Since then, Metrofuser has developed solutions for some of the most frustrating issues that printer service companies have had to experience, namely, in September, 2005, when Metrofuser developed a fix for the defective HP 4200 fuser sleeve. Under the guidance of Mark Makuch, a charter associate and Operations Manager for Metrofuser, the Metrofuser technical research and development team devised a proprietary repair that solved the problem, thus increasing Metrofuser's credibility and reputation within the marketplace.

Drawing from increasing revenues, Metrofuser continued to invest in its Research and Development efforts to expand its line of remanufactured printer parts. In October, 2006 the company devised repair and replacement parts solutions for Lexmark printers, thus beginning the effort to ensure its scalability across a very competitive market environment. “I believe that our entry into the Lexmark repair market has provided our customers with the answer they have been looking for,” stated Ken Lang, Director of Sales, “a single, reliable repair depot for ALL of their laser printer needs – not just for HP.”

With national sales and product inventory on the rise, Metrofuser opened a West-Coast printer parts distribution center in Orange County, CA to significantly reduce shipping costs and times for their growing customer base in the Western and Midwestern United States.

“One of our goals this past year was to provide balance across both coasts – to provide our Western U.S. customers with the same fast and reliable service that we have provided our Eastern U.S. customers since the company opened its doors,” added Eric Katz, Chief Financial Officer, “we continue to grow and now we are preparing to move our corporate headquarters to a larger facility.”

The immediate future brings big plans for the growing company, including expanding the production, engineering and distribution facilities in Roselle by moving to a larger facility, exploring strategic partnerships and acquisitions, and launching incentive programs for employees and partners, not to mention continuing new product developments.

Can Metrofuser maintain the momentum? DeMuth says yes, “I have no doubt that we can maintain our status as a world-class logistics and repair center,” he adds, “better than OEM (printer parts) – that's our goal, and the fact that we have been achieving that goal for the better part of 5 years is truly a testament to the commitment of all of the people that work here.”
From out of the basement came a company that got a shot in the arm when they moved to its current facility in Roselle, New Jersey in May of 2004.

Technician ID: Allows Metrofuser to isolate, quantify, track and grade the performance history all of the company’s technicians.

Industry Friendly Part Number: Allows experienced and industry newcomers to quickly and easily identify parts and cores which speeds up your reorder process and reduces the chance of ordering incompatible parts.

STOCKWORKS- A Better Way To Plan Your Parts Inventory.

March 15, 2006- Roselle, New Jersey- HP LaserJet printer parts provider Metrofuser has announced its new inventory management reporting tool, STOCKWORKS.

A Better Way To Plan Your HP Inventory
Profitability in parts results from a delicate balance between inventory turns and coverage. Coverage that's too thin may result in lost sales opportunities or missed customer expectations. Coverage that's too broad fills your shelves with slow-moving parts that sit rather than sell, negatively affecting your cash flow. STOCKWORKS will help you achieve a successful balance between turns and coverage, taking the guesswork out of inventory stocking and replacing it with hard data.


STOCKWORKS leverages Metrofuser’s experience and collected sales data to effectively identify how well your printer parts are selling and, in turn, helps you to narrow down the critical inventory choices that make sense for your business.

STOCKWORKS gives you greater control over inventory turns and order filling. Inventory ranking is sorted by the total cost of part number purchased over a specified period of time in relation to the total cost of all parts purchased, so you'll know what to stock based on value. The data from STOCKWORKS lets you fine-tune inventory for the order fill you want. You can adjust any product level by adjusting the specified period, and percent coverage desired.

The way that we help you apply STOCKWORKS to your own business Is, first, we analyze three months of sales history. Next we generate reports that illustrate the inventory model that suits you business. Even if you don't purchase Metrofuser parts, we maintain various printer parts inventory models to choose from. Finally your Metrofuser representative will make inventory recommendations to match your business objectives.

The company offers a broad array of laser printer products including fusers, maintenance kits, boards and paper handling assemblies.
