Creative Repro Company of the Year - Winner: Gilchrist

A finalist last time out, Gilchrist takes the award this year with some high-profile examples.

For John Lewis, Gilchrist worked on the Home Collection sales brochure, considered the retailer’s flagship publication. The production demands were very intense, but Gilchrist rose to the challenge. It was a process that took eight weeks and an average of seven rounds of corrections were carried out. Gilchrist also worked with Harrods and had to contend with a last-minute marketing decision: in-store posters advertising Harrods’ Tailor on a Tuk-Tuk service forced Gilchrist’s production team into some quick thinking. It had just two hours to take a digital image and add the Harrods branding to simulate a real-life vehicle. The team was quick to react and completed the job on time.
