The business is a respected and well-established label company with many years experience within the industry and enjoys a reputation for providing the highest possible standards of customer service and a massive range of labelling products.
The business was founded by the current owners in 2003 after they identified a gap in the market and the business has been a real labour of love for them and prospered under their ownership. Alas the business is now being sold, albeit reluctantly and with a heavy heart only due to the wish of one of the co-owner’s decision to take an early retirement abroad. This leaves the possibility of working alongside the other co-owner either temporarily or permanently.
