Meridian has been one of Konica Minolta's fastest growing and top performing independent dealer agents in the U.S., and has received numerous accolades from the manufacturer for superior customer service and technical abilities. In return, Konica Minolta has been very supportive of the strides Meridian has made to deliver transformational business improvements to its growing client base.
