DPS Digital has merged with sister-business Intervino to create a new brand – IV Creative – amid plans to expand into the international market.
Launched in 2012, DPS Digital has grown into one of the UK’s leading print specialists, providing services for major brands including Moonpig. Formed 18 years ago, Intervino boasts a strong portfolio of customers – including Doritos, Coca-Cola, and Diageo – for whom the company has provided personalised packaging, gifting and fulfillment services.
Both brands have won plaudits for their creativity, with the pair nominated this year in the Innovation of the Year category in the Print Week Awards.
“Both DPS Digital and Intervino are success stories, and I believe this merger will only lead to more success and growth,” said Helen Smith, Chief Operating Officer, IV Creative. “Our long-term goal for IV Creative is to expand further into the international market and offer our services globally, and we hope that growth could bring about new employment opportunities for the area. IV Creative has immense potential and this merger will help us to unleash it.”
Having started above a shop with a team of just three people, DPS Digital currently employs almost 100 people at the company’s base in Sleaford Business Park.
Smith concludes, “We’ve developed an enviable workplace culture and invested heavily in training, safety and technology – such as state-of-the-art printing equipment – so that we remain at the industry’s forefront. We plan to dominate the global personalisation, print, and gifting space by continuing to partner with some of the biggest brands and businesses in the World. We want to attract top talent to work in our dynamic, fast-paced and exciting business.”
