PRE-CLOSE TRADING STATEMENT
Â
Â
Â
Â
Post the last market update at the time of the AGM in July, trading across the Group has continued in a similar manner and is broadly in line with management's expectations for the six months to 30 September 2014.
Â
Competitive conditions remain in the Group's established markets, however new initiatives have made progress.
Â
Of note, an additional International Master Licence has been contracted for the Company's W3P system taking the number granted during the current calendar year to three.
Â
Nettl, the Group's new cross media/website initiative has been launched with the Company rebranding its Printing.com outlets in Manchester, Birmingham, London and Dublin, and initial trading bodes well.
Â
The Nettl Franchise offering was launched at the National Franchise Show in early October. It has been well received by both existing Franchisees and prospective partners.
Â
The Interim Results for the six month period ended 30 September 2014 are expected to be announced on Monday 10 November 2014.
