TripleArc snaps up more Virgin work

18 November 2004

TripleArc subsidiary Access Plus has won the contract to print manage all of Virgin Mobiles Point of Sale (PoS) material.

The three-year deal comes hot on the heels of Access Plus's multi million pound contract with Virgin Retail last month.

"Following the extensive tender process, TripleArc was appointed primarily because of the group's strong IT systems," said Virgin Mobile head of procurement Michael Ashton. "Moving forward, this will put Virgin Mobile in a better position to respond faster to the dynamic PoS markets it serves."

TripleArc chief executive Jason Cromack added: "We are pleased to have won this contract and for it to come so soon after the Virgin Retail win is fantastic."

The contract wins for Access Plus follow the Virgin Group's decision to consolidate its print spend and dissolve its print management arm Communic8.
