Kale Print has acquired Te Awamutu-based Rosetown Print.
Peter Lloyd, general manager of Kale Print, the Bay of Plenty’s leading print company, says, “We are delighted with the acquisition of Rosetown Print. It marks another significant milestone for Kale Print, enabling us to offer more products and services to Rosetown clients.
“Kale Print has had a long-standing relationship with Rosetown Print providing trade services for larger print work. Rosetown Print will continue as a stand-alone business unit as part of Kale Print.”
Rosetown Print’s former owners, David and Trudi Morris will step away from the day to day business, allowing more time for travel and connecting with family at home and abroad. David says, “For us, Kale Print is a really nice fit in terms of its family ownership, environmental drive, and the overall culture of the business. It has a young team with a real passion for print.
“Many businesses like ours face the challenge of having to look at purchasing new print technology. It is becoming harder to keep reinvesting in plant. Kale Print has been an industry leader in terms of investing in new technology, which can only be good for Te Awamutu and the wider community. Really for our customers, not much will change apart from offering more print capabilities”.
