PrintWeek editor, Jo Francis reports on the demise of Manor Creative, which has ceased trading after a failed merger with the historic Hasting Printing. Opus is expected to be appointed as Administrators early next week.
Our Business Risk Adviser, Nick Hood commented:
“Unfortunately, the acquisition of HPC and relocation of that business to Eastbourne destabilised Manor and didn’t solve the problems at HPC. We’ll be working hard to sort out the employee claims ASAP now, and to salvage what is left of the business.”
