British Association For Print And Communication

Being a member of the BAPC

For suppliers, becoming a member of the BAPC can greatly boost your business. They can put you in touch with other leaders in the field so you can learn from each other. It will help keep you up to date with what’s happening in the industry so you can adjust your product flow and prices accordingly.

You can participate in surveys and attend training to take your business to the next level. They are basically there to help you and your business in every way possible.
Most suppliers in the printing industry are small businesses without the funds or people to make a large impact. Becoming a member of the BAPC will give you the opportunity to join together with other business owners.

Members of the BAPC have stated it is the best investment they have ever made for their business. A business owner needs all the support and help he or she can get, and the BAPC makes this possible for businesses of all sizes.
