Prontaprint Managing Director Alex Graham celebrates 25 years of business growth

A milestone anniversary is being marked at Prontaprint as Managing Director Alex Graham celebrates 25 years of owning and running the business he launched in 2001.

Over the past two and a half decades the company has grown from a single centre into a successful regional operation, supporting businesses across Warwickshire and beyond with print, design and marketing services. During that time the business has further expanded and now operates six centres following recent growth last year into Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire.

“Reaching 25 years is something I am incredibly proud of. When I launched the business in 2001 I wanted to build something that genuinely helped local businesses succeed. There have been plenty of highs along the way and some challenging moments too, but thanks to our fantastic team and loyal customers we have been able to keep growing,”

Alex said.

Like many businesses the company experienced a difficult period during the Covid pandemic, when many customers temporarily paused marketing and print activity. However, the team adapted quickly, continuing to support clients as they navigated uncertain times.

As the business has developed, Prontaprint has expanded far beyond traditional print. Today the company offers a full range of marketing support including graphic design, marketing services, copywriting and proofreading alongside its print production. This wider approach allows customers to access everything they need in one place, from initial ideas and design through to finished marketing materials.

Another key part of the company’s success has been the strength and stability of its team. Several team members have been with the business for decades, creating a close-knit group with a wealth of knowledge and experience. For example, Centre Manager Kim recently celebrated 22 years with the business while Director Tadhgh will celebrate 18 years later this year.

Alex added, “We have been incredibly fortunate to build such a dedicated team. Many of us have worked together for a long time and it genuinely feels like a family. That experience and commitment makes a huge difference to the service we provide our customers.”

With six centres now operating and demand for design, marketing and print services continuing to grow the future looks positive for the business as it moves into its next 25 years.
