In 1984, right after his formal eduction in graphic arts, Ronald Mekes started working in his father's business, trading graphic art machines. Stimulated by his father, in 1985 he started together with his wife Edith his own company, Grafische Handelsonderneming Ronald Mekes BV. It grew fast; soon there was a need for much more space. In 1994 the company moved to the present buildings located at the Venneveld in Roosendaal. The modern buildings - comprising more than 5.000 sqm offices, workshops and warehouses - were completely adapted to the needs of Mekes. To-day more than 30 people are working at this location
