PIA Merger Overture Rebuffed by NAPL

SEWICKLEY, PA—Printing Industries of America members were sent the following letter by the association's president and CEO, Michael Makin, to inform them of the negative reply from NAPL regarding possible consolidation discussions.

Dear Member:

As you no doubt are aware, there have been calls for consolidations within the print association community for some time. For years printer and vendor members of Printing Industries of America have suggested that the two largest associations in the industry get together – namely Printing Industries of America and NAPL.
