As the umbrella group representing the UK’s printing industry supply chain, membership of the Graphics Print and Media Alliance (GPMA) is pursuing an agenda to promote best practice, enhance competitiveness and formulate effective public policy and delivery. The joining of these trade associations comes at a crucial time as the government is consulting with industry on both Brexit and industrial strategy.
The GPMA is focused on feeding into relevant consultations including a recent submission to the business, energy and industry strategy’s select committee regarding the industry’s position on industrial strategy.
The GPMA was formed in 2013, and in the past 12 months has seen expanded membership with the inclusion of the UK’s largest print sector association, the British Printing Industries Federation, and the leading representatives for the UK’s paper-based sector, the Confederation of Paper Industries. Together, the 11 trade association members of the GPMA represent 3,741 companies with an annual turnover of £15 billion, employing an estimated 106,000 people.
