SWOT-analysis
Trends - Digital Print
"Looking at printing technologies there is a clear trend that digital print will take market shares in relationship to conventional printing like offset. Generally the circulation is decreasing, but the jobs are increasing, which speaks in favour of digital print." Maria Blomgren, The Swedish Graphic Companies' Federation
Trends - Business models
"There is an ongoing trend towards becoming full service suppliers, meaning taking care of several parts of the clients communication. We have some larger member companies that have gone from being pure printing houses to supplying all types of communication services." Maria Blomgren, The Swedish Graphic Companies' Federation
