100th Magazine Edition Celebrated En Español

100th Magazine Edition Celebrated En Español

The five most important markets in Latin America are Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, Argentina and Peru.

So says Gustavo Molinatti, (pictured) editor of the combined Guia del Reciclador and RT Imaging World magazine. Based in Buenos Aires, Molinatti is celebrating the 100th edition of the magazine which is read by thousands of leaders in the Spanish speaking territories of the world in the printer and imaging supplies industry.

Holding the magazine—which depicts Molinatti on the front cover holding the same 100th edition which features him—you can also see the first edition on the table beside him which was published in 2002.

“This magazine has been a very important tool for uniting the industry in Latin America,” Mollinatti explains. “Others have also published magazines in Spanish, but we are fortunate to be the only one to reach the 100th edition, en Español.”

Molinatti published the first edition in November 2002. “It’s been an amazing 18 years,” he says. Professionally, Molinatti is an architect. His parents and brother are also architects (pictured with his mother). “If I have to choose only one achievement in my career,” he opines, “I believe it was pulling together the LATAM aftermarket industry through an independent and reliable media of information and training.” Molinatti has run 25 events in eight cities in Latin America to bolster the imaging supplies aftermarket.

In 2019, Molinatti partnered up with RT ImagingWorld magazine which publishes magazines for the imaging supplies sector in English and Chinese with partners also in Russian and Arabic language editions.

Molinatti acknowledges the strong contribution made by Mexico-based Ivan Rosales (pictured) who was editor of RT Imaging World En Español from 2014 through to 2018 inclusive. “Ivan made a strategic investment to raise the quality of the RT brand in Latin America and his contribution should be recognised in reaching the 100th edition landmark.” Rosales is currently Regional Manager at Cartridge World Global.

Rosales was also a partner in running three very successful trade expos in Cancun, Mexico in 2016, 2017 and 2018.

This edition of RT Imaging World En Español, jointly branded with Guia del Reciclador magazine is distributed in Latin America and in Spain during June 2020 and is also available as a free download. There are four editions every year containing new product information, opinions and views on industry issues. The next edition will focus on the potential in the SOHO market and inkjet printers as the new normal will see more people working from home.
