The Production House, operating similarly to off-shore print providers with a central hub and an online web presence in each market, offers a range of print products from top quality business cards and stationery to consumables that clients can re-sell to their own customers.
The Production House has been launched under the umbrella of Patch Design and Print Solutions, which already has hundreds of re-sellers around the country, many of them printers, designers and related trades. Much of its business is in the retail market, but marketing manager, Ben Day says there is huge potential in its wholesale operation.
"There's a lot of consolidation in the printing industry, and we are simply offering a New Zealand-based service to accommodate local firms and others who may be looking overseas for their on-demand printing needs.
"We've spent the last five years refining our systems to produce New Zealand's best high quality thick'n chunky business cards at prices that are the best value in Australasia, guaranteed. All of the Production House products are printed in New Zealand.
"We specialise in top quality/value for money print, be it corporate stationery, business cards, and promotional material which covers anything from posters and notepads through to name badges, pens and even mugs," he says.
"We have our own graphic design team and can design jobs from scratch if necessary."
He says most people are now savvy with the internet and their on-line service makes sense because it is easier for people to browse their products, order what they want and cost the finished product on-line any time of the day.
The Production House is also offering generic websites to their customers who can offer the products to their own clients under their own brand name. Each website will be linked directly to The Production House's production hub, making the transition even simpler.
"This will enable printers and other companies to offer a full range of printed products to their own clients without the cost of doing the job themselves."
