Firm presses on with print expansion

Mannin parent grows again

The new owners of a large-scale Island printing business have expanded again, with a second acquisition in six months.

Northern Ireland-based Bradley Group took over Mannin Print, formerly known as Mannin Group in February 2017.

Now the firm has acquired longstanding family business Nicholson Bass.

The printers will, it's claimed, 'remain autonomous' and hold on to existing top-level staff.

Bradley Group pins hopes the £3 million turned over by Mannin last year, in addition to the latest acquisition, will bring the firm closer to its target of £20 million in print revenues by the close of next year.

Mannin, based in Tromode, has been operating for over 30 years, and has clients including the Manx government.

Bradley Group's Managing Director is Peter Bradley:
