GRAPHIC IMAGES PLC

This has been an excellent year for Graphic Images PLC. Total sales have reached £370 million and sales within the UK have shown an impressive 8% growth. Export sales have fallen by 5% but gross profit has grown by 3 %. All business divisions have performed well.

We have invested heavily this year to improve quality. Our “Quality Counts” programme has involved many employees in individual and team projects and we have run a series of training courses for technical personnel.

Our research and development work have continued and we have introduced many new and enhanced products. We have given our customers increased support through our after-sales division.

We have established a new wholly-owned subsidiary, Graphic Finance Ltd., this year. So far this subsidiary has assisted over a thousand customers to lease Graphic Images equipment.

We have entered two new partnerships this year. We have begun a joint venture project with KARSTEL to develop an optical disk filing system and we have signed a European distribution agreement with IND Amsterdam.
