Kale Print has acquired neighbouring Rosetown Print, which will continue as a stand-alone business unit as part of Kale.
Bay of Plenty based Kale Print will move Rosetown Print into a smaller location in the high street of Te Awamutu. Rosetown owners David and Trudi will step away from the day-to-day business allowing more time for travel and connecting with family both home and abroad
Peter Lloyd, general manager of Kale Print, the Bay of Plenty’s leading print company, says, “We are delighted with the acquisition of Rosetown Print. Another significant milestone for the company, which will enable us to offer more products and services to Rosetown clients. Kale Print has had a long-standing relationship with Rosetown Print providing trade services for larger print work.

Rosetown Print is a family-owned and operated business founded in the early ‘80s by the Morris family, credits the success of the business to the hard work and commitment of the Rosetown team.
David says, “For us, Kale Print was a really nice fit in terms of its family ownership, environmental drive, and the overall culture of the business. It has a young team with a real passion for print. Many businesses like ours face the challenge of having to look at purchasing new print technology. It is becoming harder to keep reinvesting in plant. Kale Print has been an industry leader in terms of investing in new technology, which can only be good for Te Awamutu and the wider community. Really for our customers, not much will change apart from offering more print capabilities”.
