Hide AdAndrew Hewitson, CEO at Reproflex3, said: “Before we made our first international investment, which was setting up a new plate manufacturing facility and artwork studio in Dubai, we worked closely with our international trade adviser within the Department for Business and Trade.


“It is an honour to be able to share our experience in international trade with other ambitious and entrepreneurial-minded businesses seeking to enter new markets or export for the first time.”
Reproflex3 now operates sites in the UK, Dubai, India, and New Zealand, and deploys its flexographic print technologies through partnerships in the USA and mainland Europe.
As an export champion, the company will offer practical advice to other businesses in the North who also wish to expand overseas.
