Bell buys Selective Printing

Former MVP Wicks owner David Bell has bought Bradford-based Selective Printing Machinery for an undisclosed amount.

Selective Printing Machinery managing director Bell said that he plans to expand the companys selection of machinery and intends to become a global supplier of Heidelberg cylinder spare parts.

Its a very good business. We want to form partnerships with agents to get into the world-wide spares market. Its a niche area that hasnt been tapped, said Bell.

Bell used to trade as MVP Wicks but said that the goodwill of his former business would be transferred to Selective Printing Machinery.

The eight-employee company is currently in talks with an unnamed manufacturer about the possibility of becoming a supplier of flatbed die-cutters.

Selective Printing Machinerys former owner, Steven Fella, will stay at the company as sales executive.
