Gulf Technology Systems, as our company was originally known, was founded in 1994 by Managing Director Ian Barker. Ian has over 28 years experience working in the Middle East, first in Saudi Arabia then in the U.A.E., specifying first warehouse storage systems then packaging and printing equipment.
Ian was joined in 1999 by Tim Ansell, the two of them having previously worked together during the period 1992 - 1994. Tim's own experience includes over 18 years in the Gulf, plus 18 months in the U.S.A. and a similar period in Australia establishing sales distribution networks for coding equipment manufacturers.
We are the Gulf's leading supplier of packaging machinery and materials, based in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. Representing such world renowned companies as Markem-Imaje, Safeline, Robopac and Smipack, we supply and service a diverse range of products for an even wider range of customers.
