Mark Andy strengthens MAPP team in Mexico

Mark Andy has hired two new full-time team members to the Mark Andy Print Products (MAPP) division, Rosario Frayre and Juan Manuel Peralta, to strengthen its position in Mexico.

For more than 50 years, Mark Andy has been one of the preferred partners for label converters in Mexico. It offers one of the widest installed bases of narrow web equipment in the region and a reputation built on reliability, engineering excellence and support.

With the recent opening of a dedicated MAPP distribution center in Guadalajara, the company is extending that legacy into parts, supplies and consumables. Adding Frayre and Peralta reflects Mark Andy’s ongoing investment in providing faster, more personalized customer support across Mexico.

Frayre has joined as inside sales representative, bringing a degree in Mechatronics Engineering and several years of experience managing manufacturing operations. Fluent in Spanish and English, she brings technical insight and operational strength to the team, helping ensure smooth communication and internal coordination.

Peralta steps into the role of outside sales representative. With a degree in Industrial Engineering and more than eight years of experience in the flexographic printing industry, he has worked directly with converters on the supply side. He understands the pressures of the pressroom and brings a customer-first approach to solving technical challenges quickly and effectively.

‘Rosario and Juan are exactly the kind of people we want representing Mark Andy in this market,’ said Dave Telken, senior vice president of Mark Andy Print Products. ‘They bring experience, energy, and expertise - and they share our commitment to supporting converters not just with products, but with people they can count on.’

The new hires will be based at MAPP’s Guadalajara facility, a regional hub for pressroom consumables and service coordination. While the operation is launching with a focused inventory of high-demand products, additional growth is expected as customer demand scales.

Mark Andy’s expansion into Mexico through MAPP reflects a broader global strategy to meet converters where they are and to support them with localized expertise that delivers measurable results. This enhanced presence is further strengthened by the recent launch of a dedicated Mark Andy service and support team in Mexico, ensuring customers have direct access not only to critical parts and supplies but also to factory-trained technicians who understand their equipment inside and out.
