In 2003, Canon Bretagne celebrated its 20 years of existence
in a strong globalisation context in which low value-added
services (office equipment) are now carried out in Asian
facilities (China, Thailand,...). On top of the Cartridge activity,
Canon Bretagne goes with a two-pronged approach which
requires both development and adaptability.
By creating a "New Business" department, in 2001
Canon Bretagne decided to create new services for the
Canon Group but also for partners outside the Group.
The company widens its scope by making its expertise
available to companies willing to outsource their production
in order to focus their activities on research, development
and marketing.
