Kevin Ogden, Horizon managing director
Horizon Digital Media has acquired a new international investor and made two key purchases that underline its intent to become a more focused and customer-driven business.
The marketing and digital print provider based in South Wales has made two recent kit investments: a Ricoh Pro C7100x digital press (with a 5th station for spot varnish and white capability) and a Morgana Digibook 200 automated PUR binding machine. With the help of investment from Canadian firm Penalta Group Ltd, Horizon will now offer its services exclusively in the areas of digital print, content marketing, design and web.
‘We’ve sharpened our service offering to focus on what will make our customers more successful,’ explained Kevin Ogden, Horizon’s managing director. ‘Our in-house digital print facilities can handle landscape A4, six-page A4, spot clear varnish and fifth colour processes – this investment will help our finishing equipment excel too.’
Darren Joslin, business development manager, added, ‘We have our own digital presses and finishing team in-house; we have veteran copywriters and social media strategists; we have incredible talent in our graphic design team and our web developers can build everything from beautiful single page WordPress blogs to e-commerce solutions or massive online portals.’
