Canon Business Solutions Lounge will exhibit a wide range B2B products like copiers, laser multifunctional devices, faxes, document scanners, etc.

Alok Bharadwaj, senior vice president, Canon India, added: "Although there are over 4000 retail points in India, we have noticed that these showrooms fall short in exhibiting all our product ranges. Many a times, customers go unaware that certain range of products exist. So, there is a need for a platform to showcase our products and allowing the consumers to walk in and try our complete range of offerings."
