Sentient Publishing has more than 15 years of experience in the printing industry
having established the first directory of suppliers to the printing industry. As a
print-centric company it has subsequently launched The GAPP Magazine – the
broadest spectrum print and packaging magazine serving the South African
market, and The SA Print Directory – a directory of commercial printers,
packaging manufacturers and signage producers. The staff within Sentient
Publishing have almost 100 years in, or associated with, the printing , as
well as marketing and media industries.
The GAPP PrintExpo will be held at Nasrec from 15 to 18 March 2016 and will run
concurrently with the associated exhibitions of Propak Africa, Foodpro, Pro-Plas
Expo and Pro-Label Africa. As in previous years, Propak will be situated in Hall 6
at Nasrec. The GAPP PrintExpo will be situated in Hall 7.
In addition to the exhibition, The GAPP PrintExpo will be running a two-day series
of conferences aimed at senior decision-makers and buyers of printing services.
The conference will focus around trends and developments in the international
printing industry giving attending delegates a more in-depth view of their
industry and the factors which are influencing it.
Commenting on the association, Gary Corin, managing director of Specialised
Exhibitions said, ‘This is a very exciting joint venture for us. It allows us to
leverage off of the superb reputation of The GAPP Magazine and gives us
access to an extensive database of senior and middle-management players
in the printing industry.’
Vikesh Roopchand, managing director of Sentient Publishing added, ‘In just five
years The GAPP has gone from being the newcomer on the market to being a
well-respected publication with a very large readership. We are very excited to
have been approached by Specialised Exhibitions to partner with it on the
staging of The GAPP PrintExpo.’
