Even with the challenges we all face, FIAUK partners and members continue to outperform on the world’s stage. It is organisations like FIAUK that ensure the entire supply chain is rowing in the same direction and lobbies for its interests. I believe that the UK is home to some of the most innovative and creative printing and packaging companies found anywhere in the world, many of whom are found within the FIAUK organisation.”
