Garnett Dickinson launches major new Mailing Division
 
Posted: 12/05/2010
 
Garnett Dickinson has announced an extension of its services to create a brand new fully integrated Direct Marketing division – Garnett Dickinson Mailing.

Garnett Dickinson Mailing is an innovative new service providing the mail order, commercial and publishing sectors with the latest technology and progressive approach, to help increase sales and speed up turnaround times. It was launched to the mail order industry at the Catalogue Exchange Round Table Day and ECMOD Awards in London on April 14th. 

The launch has been followed by several orders, including a two year contract for a large mail order business worth £0.75 million, and another for 800,000 mailing packs for a trade customer in Leeds.


Garnett Dickinson Mailing which has already secured ISO 14001 and Sustainable Mail accreditation, offers a standalone Direct Marketing facility with its main base at Normanton, near Wakefield and a second facility at its Rotherham factory.  This  makes it one of the UK’s largest Mailing Houses with the ability to handle over half a million items a day. 

Group Chief Executive Nick Alexander said: “Garnett Dickinson Mailing is a natural extension of services we have provided for more than 20 years and we felt strategically that the time was right to expand our offering to the Mail Order and Direct Marketing industries.  The Acorn acquisition in the second half of last year presented us with the ideal opportunity to develop GD Mailing in 2010. We are delighted to welcome on board some of the most experienced and talented people in the industry to run the new division including Andy Cowman as Database Marketing Director.”
