Sector: Design, Print and Publishing
In 1881 Herbert and Burgess Headley founded a printing company in a small room above their father’s grocery shop in Ashford, Kent. Headley Brothers now employ over 200 people across a group of seven companies providing print and multimedia solutions. They are Kent’s leading magazine and journal printer.
2011 is a landmark year for Headley Brothers. They are celebrating 130 years of print and media service provision in an exceptionally dynamic and fast paced industry.
Headley Brothers is an independent, family owned and run business combining the traditional values of top quality workmanship and service with innovation and investment.
Roger Pitt, Managing Director at Headley Brothers commented “The key to our longevity will always be our determination to provide the most comprehensive and flexible services. We continually and intelligently invest in the newest technologies to offer the most efficient and all encompassing services to our customers. We recently purchased a new inline finishing system to perforate, cut and crease inline at full production speed. It enables us to provide a faster and more versatile service for customers. We are also working on the relaunch of the Headley Brothers Digital Ltd website. Reeves advise us on capital allowances and our structure to make full use of group reliefs.”
Headley Brothers provide the complete package of services to the publishing industry – all under one roof. They offer web design and internet based services, cross media marketing campaigns and a full range of print and pre-press facilities. Their web and sheet fed presses can efficiently accommodate all types and sizes of print requirements from just one poster to 300,000 copies of a magazine. All print finishing such as stapling, binding and lamination is also undertaken in house together with data processing, despatch and mailing. There is even a subscription management service.
Roger continued “Headleys is very much a family business. Reeves have taken care of both our business and personal finances for over 20 years. I would happily recommend them.“
