Aim to expand into production sites in UK
The Island's biggest printer, Mannin Group, has been bought out by UK suppliers Bradley Group.
Mannin Print, as it will now be known, anticipates the merger will allow it to expand into key production sites on Merseyside and in Northern Ireland.
The 29-strong Manx workforce turned over £3 million last year.
Managing Director Steve Brown says he wants the deal to strengthen the company's standing against major competitors - at home and abroad:
