Hawthornes welcomes Russians

Hawthornes Printers in Nottingham played host to a party of Russian printers representing 16 companies.

The delegation was given a guided tour of Hawthornes New Basford premises by production director Mike Marriott and marketing manager Aubrey Williams.

Bob Nicholls, project manager of the Nottingham-based Print Media & Graphics Network, said there was "much common ground" and that many of the challenges faced by East Midlands printers were also present in Russia.
