In the face of an alarming trend marked by the recent bankruptcy of printing house Zwaan Lenoir, we urge all stakeholders in the creative industry to rally around our local printers and print houses. Regrettably, these vital entities are dwindling as print production increasingly shifts towards seemingly cost-effective options overseas.
Let's collectively invest in and uphold the rich reservoir of knowledge, experience, and traditions that our local printers bring to the table. By choosing to work with them, you not only contribute to the preservation of a crucial sector but also tap into a wealth of expertise that can elevate the quality of your projects.
In a resounding call to action, we implore everyone to Print Local! — a commitment that not only supports the sustainability of our community but also ensures the continued vitality of the printing industry in the Netherlands.
Be aware, Print Local!
