PMP NZ Limited
acquires International Print Limited
PMP NZ Limited, the
country’s largest commercial printing company announced
today it is to acquire International Print Limited, in a
move that will further strengthen PMP’s position in the
short-run printing business in New Zealand.
The
acquisition of IPL, an Auckland based sheetfed printing
business, achieves important objectives for PMP as it
repositions its business and adapts to an evolving printing
industry.
Executive General Manager for PMP New Zealand, Peter Browne, said acquiring IPL is part of the company’s commitment to both rationalise and grow its printing business in New Zealand:
“This announcement is an indication of PMP being on the front foot in terms of developing its business and demonstrates our commitment to invest where appropriate. IPL is a sound profitable business and will be a good fit for PMP.”
PMP is a division of PMP Print, listed on the ASX (Code:PMP). It recently announced plans to move to a new purpose built 29,000 square metre site in Manukau and a new organisational structure.
Located in Browns Bay, IPL is a privately owned medium sized sheet fed printing business and a leading independent in the Auckland A1 offset market. The business will move to PMP’s facility in Vestey Drive, Mount Wellington.
