What’s your typical customer?

Which geographic areas do you serve?

The majority of our business is based in the north west of England, however we regularly work with national companies.

We consistently produce printed products that we know our customers are proud of.

What equipment do you run?

A Konica Minolta Bizhub Press C7000, an HP Z6200 photo production
wide-format printer and associated finishing equipment including a Trimalco Nemesis supplied by Josero.

What has been your proudest achievement?

Launching PNG Digital after working in the print production sector for the past 25 years. A daunting decision but one year down the road I have no regrets at all. The business is growing at a pace and we’re already investing in new equipment and looking to recruit additional staff. I really love what I do and it is wonderful being my own boss!

What’s your team’s favourite biscuit?

Can’t beat a Ginger Nut dunked in tea!
