Altodigital agrees three-year deal with Wolverhampton Wanderers FC
The reseller will take care of the Premier League club's print systems
The UK’s largest independent office technology supplier Altodigital has signed a new three-year contract with Premier League outfit Wolverhampton Wanderers FC.
Strengthening the long-standing relationship between the pair, the deal will see the Kingswinford-based reseller manage the football club’s print systems, including the supply and maintenance of Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE c5500 series devices.
Altodigital will also help Wolves in its push to become more environmentally friendly and reduce the amount of overall waste it produces as part of the contract. Staff at the club will now need to use their door key cards to release print jobs, which the firm says will help eliminate “carte blanche printing” and generate significantly less wasted paper.
“Our partnership with Wolves goes back 10 years, so it’s fantastic that we’ve been able to renew the contract,” said Altodigital’s Tim Hubbard. “I believe our success with the club is not just about the equipment we provide, but the service. The club can always count on us to deliver.
“Under the new contract we’ll be installing Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5500 series devices at Molineux and the club’s training facilities at Compton Park. Canon UK and Ireland is a world-leading innovator and provider of IT solutions for offices and its brand is among the best, which is why it’s such a fitting partner for Wolves.”
Launched in 1987, Altodigital provides a range of products and services, including print document management and office supplies for businesses across the UK.
With 12 offices around the country, the reseller has built a reputation for working with big-name sports clubs – including Arsenal, Huddersfield Town, Glamorgan County Cricket Club and Cardiff Devils ice hockey team.

“We’re delighted to continue our partnership with Altodigital as we’ve been very happy with its service over the past decade,” commented Wolves’ managing director Laurie Dalrymple. “The club expects the best in everything we do, on and off the field, so there’s the pressure on partners and suppliers to meet certain expectations, and Altodigital certainly does that.”
