| Sales Update | 28 June 2010 |
4imprint Group issues its sales update to the end of May.
Group sales have continued the strong momentum seen in the early months of the year, and at the end of May were 18% ahead of last year. All divisions contributed to this growth.
The Direct Marketing Division generated sales in North America 17% ahead of last year, (21% ahead in US dollars). Furthermore the yield from investment in prospecting was much improved with a strong increase in response rate. UK Sales were 15% ahead of last year.
The End User Division has continued to perform strongly with sales 23% ahead, benefiting from new contracts secured at the end of 2009. Margins however were lower than in 2009 reflecting a highly competitive environment.
Trade Division made more modest progress, with sales 8% ahead in a UK market which is still only slowly improving.
The Group will announce its half year results on 4 August 2010.
