ScotPrint has been cancelled after its organiser, Trade Events, said it had failed to attract the critical mass needed for a successful event.

Trade Events director Gary Swinford said the decision to cancel the exhibition, which was scheduled to take place from 1-2 October in Glasgow, had been taken reluctantly.

We sympathise with those who had already committed to the show," he said. "We could have run the show, but I think that it would have been disappointing to exhibitors and visitors.

However, Swinford said Trade Events remained committed to the Scottish market and planned for Glasgow to host one of a series of local events called Print on the Move.
