    Hi Shane

    Thank you, It is the South Africans that you are busy thrashing…they are
    somewhat South of us. Our team disintegrated a while back.

    We are a mid size shop with 20 employees and a strong bias toward
    digital. We run a Mutoh Toucan, a couple of encads Printers and Summa &
    Gerber vinyl cutters.
    Our environment is probably more challenging than most as we have constant fuel and electricity shortages and inflation has topped 1000% +

    However we hang in their

    Regards

    Mel

    Mel, it probably does not mean much unfortunately, but I often wonder how businesses carry on with such a crippling political environment. The pictures we see here are heart breaking.

    That said… 20 people…. mid sized… 😮 … that is big in my neck of the woods…. :lol1:

    Welcome again, I sure I speak for everyone here when I say we all hope you do hang in there, and you’re always welcome here.
