The recruitment drive came as the Croydon-based company announced that it had achieved a £1m monthly turnover for the first time since it was incorporated in 2004.

Its like-for-like sales revenue jumped by 105% between September and November, compared with the same period in 2007.

The company, which produces personalised direct mail for Ikea and Direct Wines, is hoping to continue this trend with the appointment of 13 new staff across the business.

Among the new recruits are Robert Burbidge and Brett Smith who have joined as associate directors from SR Communications – the direct mail house acquired by MBA Holdings earlier this year.

Other recruits include data programmers, production managers and print operators.

Andy Ruddle, sales and marketing director, said: "Our success is due to an increasing recognition of the bottom line returns that highly personalised and integrated communications can deliver."

The company was highly commended at the recent PrintWeek Awards in the Direct Mail Printer of the Year category.
