“Print is one of the most marvelous inventions and it should be respected and treated with dignity,” commented Chris Hutchison, president of The P.A. Hutchison Co. “We’re looking forward to collaborating with the other members and developing a long-term strategy to promote traditional printing. I believe working with The Print Council is just the first step in educating our customers and I’m excited to be part of this well-respected and talented group.”
Panaprint, Inc., a privately-held family owned company boasting a state-of-the-art facility in Macon, GA, has two web presses and two sheetfed presses, saddle-stitchers and binder, in-house mailing, fulfillment services, an award-winning design team and expert customer service. President Wanzie Collins is proud to be part of the business he founded in 1973 and believes that joining The Print Council is an excellent opportunity for giving back.
“I joined The Print Council because I believe in promoting print. The true value of the industry is being overlooked and taken for granted. We need to be proactive,” said Collins. “Print is a phenomenal thing. It’s portable, inexpensive, device independent and tactile. That’s the message we need to relay.”
Ben Cooper, Executive Director of The Print Council, is excited to be welcoming four such successful and forward-thinking companies. “This group of new members is especially passionate about their industry and we’re looking forward to their enthusiasm and vision in building awareness and defining a place for print.”
