Lighthouse Printing
Our History
In October 1985, we decided to start a family. We wanted to think of a business idea which would provide Fay with a job, working from home and would eventually provide a career for both of us. Printing seemed a good solution but there was one drawback - we knew absolutely nothing about it! A book from the local library gave us a start. £250 bought a second-hand letterpress which we installed in a back bedroom. One evening as we worked looking out at the distant lighthouse on Flatholm, the idea came for the name of the business......
Award
After about a year of trading, Fay was nominated and came a close second in the NatWest Bank ‘Business Woman of the Year Competition’ and earned a feature in the Western Mail! Over the next couple of years came training courses, a modern litho press, computer typesetting & pricing, a thermographing machine (for producing raised print) - and a lot of new customers.....
Experience
Lighthouse Printing has now been in business in Cardiff for twenty seven years. During that time we’ve seen huge changes in the print industry and gained a valuable store of knowledge about the many processes involved in producing litho, digital and promotional goods.
Customers
Lighthouse Printing is a family-run company set up in 1985. We have provided printing and promotional goods for some of Wales most prestigious organisations, charities and small and medium sized businesses.
