Rod Fisher, the owner and managing director of Print-Leeds, said: “The company continues to grow as we find new markets across all the divisions and the addition of highly experienced staff is of great value to us.

“We are renowned for our high quality digital work and this division is showing strong growth.”

Established in 2001, Print-Leeds is a privately-owned specialist printing house.

The company is housed in a purpose-built factory. The premises were extended five years ago, providing the firm with more than 20,000 sq ft to house all three of its divisions.

In 2012, Print-Leeds invested nearly £3m in a new printing press.

The investment came shortly after the printing business acquired S&C Labels in Huddersfield.
