As PrintWeek went to press two partners of credit checking agency ICSM, Steve Mepham and David Whitaker, announced they would part with the company from 2 August.
Original partners Ian Carrotte and Mepham established the ICSM Partnership eight years ago to provide credit information to the printing industry.
The departing partners refused to comment on their plans. There are on-going legal ramifications, said Mepham. I cannot make any further comment.
Sales specialist Carrotte will continue to operate ICSM.
Mepham ran ICSMs administration, while Whitaker was the companys debt recovery specialist.
