Dean was excited about the move:-
“We have big plans for VT Prints. We needed more room and a more adaptable unit to create a working environment that matches our ambition for the business.
“One of the new 2000sq foot ‘grow-on’ units at Bishop’s Castle Business Park is perfect for us. It’s state-of -the-art in terms of commercial units. Moving there will allow us to introduce new products and provide an even better service for our many customers.”
