Statement regarding the Bemrose/ Moments situation
Posted on 05/07/2010
The recent news of the BemroseBooth Group (manufacturers of the Bemrose and Moments calendar range) going into administration on 29th June 2010 has shocked the promotional print industry and is causing some major issues for other calendar manufacturers in its wake.
Over 160 people at various Bemrose sites have already sadly lost their jobs, with uncertainty hanging over the future of the whole business. More information can be found in the following news articles:
