Print & PackagingSector
The UK printing and packaging sector has been in decline for a number of years due to the emergence of digital media reducing demand for printed materials.
The UK Printing & Packaging Sector is still estimated to generate well over £20 billion, and recent soul searching within the industry has seen many organisations evolve and adapt their business models.
The successful print and packing organisations that Barron Williams work with are responsive. They’ve identified new opportunities, adapted to their rapidly changing environment, reduced their carbon footprint and shifted focus to eco-friendly products and production techniques. And whilst the publication printing sector for items such as books, newspapers and magazines has seen steady decline, packaging is bucking the trend and experiencing healthy growth rates.
As a sector it is innovative and highly creative, so the need for talented executives and senior management is high.

If you’re interested in partnering with Barron Williams, we are currently working closely with a number of print companies.
