In the latest episode of print's podcast, It's Been A Big Month in Print, industry insiders Wayne Robinson and Jan Arreza analyse, assess, and interpret the major news, trends, issues and developments from May.
We begin our discussion by reviewing the refreshed National Print Awards, with the winners and special moments. We also assess the main themes revealed during PacPrint, including the increased diversification of business opportunities in print. We dig into the the reasons behind the mergence of DTF as a business opportunity for printers, exemplified by two print businesses making major DTF investments at PacPrint.
The discussion also reviews the sale of Marvel Bookbinding, as well as the contributing factors behind the upcoming liquidation of Martin O’Brien Formes. We wrap up by checking into Vik Gulati’s purchase of Reacon Group, and the twists and turns in the process.
