Grafenia grasps the Nettl

GRAFENIA, formerly Printing.com, is continuing its move to a cross-media platform for franchisees called Nettl.

The group has recognised demand for traditional print is declining and it offering small and medium-sized businesses services such as web and app design through the new brand.

The Printing.com shops in London, Dublin and Manchester have now converted to Nettl and have started selling online services.

The group said: “The foundation of Grafenia was the Printing.com franchise format. In Nettl we believe we have a formula that by the close of the current financial year will have gained significant traction.”

In the six months to the end of September pre-tax profits grew 19% to £370,000 on revenues of £8.5m, down 16%. The interim dividend was up 50% to 0.5p.
