Tucson-Based CB Document Solutions Changes Name to Arizona Office Technologies
New Name to Unite Company Subsidiaries and Continue Tradition of Quality
PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CB Document Solutions (CBDS), a supplier of high-quality office copiers, has changed its name to its Phoenix-based parent company, Arizona Office Technologies (AOT), effective immediately. The change more accurately reflects the company’s commitment to quality and service in the overall Arizona marketplace, while maintaining a stand-alone full-service operation in the diverse Southern Arizona market.
Arizona Office Technologies acquired CBDS four years ago, and within two years it merged its small AOT Tucson operation into the Tucson-based CBDS. The company has determined that now is the time to unite under one identity, with the goal of better servicing the local business communities.
“With the re-branding of CB Document Solutions we feel we can take advantage of the growing market presence of the AOT name throughout the state of Arizona. We will continue to provide excellent local accountability and control, with all business functions for Tucson remaining in Tucson,” said Mike McGuirk, president, Arizona Office Technologies. “At Arizona Office Technologies we have always prided ourselves on delivering the highest quality and best value to Arizona businesses, and will continue to provide that at our division in Tucson under the direction of General Manager Bruce Bonstrom.”
Mr. Bonstrom, a Tucson resident since 1994, joined CBDS two years ago. He has a 24-year track record of executive leadership in office products. “We are very excited about the name change to AOT. With their sponsorship of the Phoenix Suns, Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, and Arizona Diamondbacks, they have become one of the most recognized names in the state in our industry, and we look forward to taking advantage of it. The fact that we are keeping all business functions in Tucson, including billing, local inventory, parts, supplies and delivery, truly gives our Tucson customers the best of both worlds.”
CBDS traces its roots to 1988 when the Company's founder began selling copiers out of the trunk of his car. His two brothers joined him over the next two years, and Copier Brothers was born. The name was changed to CB Document Solutions in 2003 to better reflect the wide variety of document products, and was acquired by Arizona Office Technologies in 2004. Arizona Office Technologies is a subsidiary of Global Imaging Systems and Xerox Corporation (NYSE: XRX). Xerox has the industry’s largest portfolio of document systems and services, and the broadest U.S. distribution network.
The official name change to Arizona Office Technologies is effective as of January 1, 2008. The company will continue to offer the same great service and prices to its clients after the transition.
