PCP lands Porsche mag deal

Precision Colour Print (PCP) has scooped a contract to produce a new car magazine for Porsche owners and enthusiasts.

The magazine, 911, is the second launch from Devon-based 9 Publishing, and goes on sale this week.

PCP, based in Telford, will produce 35,000 copies of the 120pp monthly magazine, which targets owners and fans of the classic  Porsche 911 model.

"That's the model people really aspire to. North America is the biggest market, but there are a lot of Porsche owners in the UK," said 911 editor Philip Raby.

9 Publishing was set up last year, and uses PCP to print its other title, Total MG, a magazine for fans of MG cars.

The win for PCP follows a 10m investment, including a 32pp MAN Roland Rotoman, a new presshall, and paper warehouse and finishing kit.
