Inkfish aims big with new site

Inkfish Services hopes to double if not triple turnover within three years after starting work on a new mailing house.

The site is just three miles from its current Coventry location, but will be more than five times the size at 5,600m2 when building work is completed next May.

Sales director Tommy Sledmar said the company wanted to move as it had reached its total capacity of 65m mailings a year. The new site will be able to handle over 150m mailings.

The expansion of the business was essential as were producing around 50m mailings a year for our parent company, Domestic & General Group, he added. Any more volume from them and wed have no capacity for other business.

The 3.9m-turnover firm will also boost staff by around 50% to just under 100.
