Yorkshire-based online printer Route One Print, has moved in to the Sunday Times Virgin Fast Track 100, following three years which have seen revenue increase fourfold from £3.5 million to £14 million.

Founded in 2012, the company employs 197 staff in its Rotherham premises and has seen an average 62% growth in sales.

Along with sister company instantprint, Route One Print is part of The Bluetree Group. Established in 1989 in Templeborough, South Yorkshire, The Bluetree Group started out as a screen printer and have recently invested £9 million into the company’s new 100,000 square foot facility along with a number of new machines.

Co founder James Kinsella said, ‘We are thrilled to be in the Fast Track 100 – it is something that we are immensely proud of. Starting a new business can be a stressful time and it’s been a lot of hard work. We are delighted that we have been recognised for our growth over the last three years, it makes all the hard work seem worthwhile.

Only this year we moved to a new office, which led to us employing more than 61 new staff in the local area since June. This achievement is something that all of our team have contributed to.’

Head of client services, Kate Mackenzie said, ‘I think the strong relationships we have built with our clients has been instrumental in achieving our place on this prestigious list. It’s an honour to be in the company of well-known brands such as Innocent, Pure Gym and Graze.com. We hope that it is indicative that we are doing something very right in the trade print arena.

We are always listening to what our clients have to say and we’re always aiming to exceed their needs and we feel that we couldn’t have achieved this feat without this two-way relationship. The next step for us is to continue improving our website and product offering as well as expanding on our reseller tools. It’s an exciting time for Route One Print, and our position in the Sunday Times Virgin Fast Track 100 is the cherry on top.’
