Printers are RESILIENT. You are resilient. Remember that. Many of you have been in the industry a long time now and have witnessed once-in-a-lifetime events occur that changed organizations forever. Some have been positive like computer-aided typesetting, digital plating, web-to-print, and digital workflows. Others sent shivers up your spine (9-11, Covid-19).
Currently, you are facing shortages from all directions: workforce, paper, UV inks, time. Many firms are able to catch a premium for their print and packaging services. That is exciting. But at the same time, there is that familiar feeling that once again, we need to be prepared. There are a lot of unknowns, but history tells us that business and commerce will be impacted as daily living expenses and prices continue to soar.
Know that PIA MidAmerica is resilient too. We are here to support our industry, your businesses and you with national buying programs, workplace tools and reports, education and webinar opportunities. We encourage everyone to take advantage of the tools and support that PIA MidAmerica offers. Take the time to plan now.
