Ramsey, NJ (Jan. 18, 2018) — Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A. Inc. (Konica Minolta) proudly announced today that Roopa Parekh, Market Vice President, New England, has been promoted to the position of President, East Region, effective Jan. 1. Parekh will report to Terry Dixon, President, Direct Operations.
Since joining the company in 2004 as a sales manager in Boston, Parekh has consistently helped move the organization forward with her focus on the development of her employees and the overall client experience. In her first year at Konica Minolta, her sales team catapulted to first place, and she was named Employee of the Year as she expanded the company’s presence in the East Region. Her interest in education and mentoring led her to develop a supplemental educational program for a local vocational school in Worcester, MA, to offer Graphic Communications courses.
In 2014, as an area vice president, she developed five exceptional sales teams, one of which was awarded Konica Minolta’s “Simply Bold” award. Subsequently, that year, Parekh was promoted to her current position as Market Vice President, New England. Parekh has consistently achieved Konica Minolta’s President’s Club award for sales excellence for the past 12 years.
