Fresh from its launch of a new garment label factory in Cambodia, QLM Label Makers has expanded into Western Australia with the purchase of Perth-based converter Label Magic.
Label Magic has been a trading partner of QLM for many years, and director Sandy Bullied said the merger was a good next step for the business.
“We have been working with QLM for so long we were part of the family, but as trade partners there were some limitations, particularly in the areas of large scale manufacturing,” she said. “By merging, we see some real opportunities in this area.”
Label Magic will rebrand as QLM Label Makers Perth, and the new addition to the QLM stable is a perfect fit, says Simon Pugh, CEO QLM Group.
“Label Magic has a long history in the WA print industry and we are very excited to formally have them as part of the QLM Group,” he said.
“We have worked with Sandy and the team for many years and we were looking for ways to grow both businesses. We worked out that collectively we would be able to provide more opportunities for both clients and the teams.”
Perth is the latest branch for QLM, which is based in Brisbane with operations in Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide, as well as seven other countries in the Asia-Pacific region.
