Midland Regional Printers has appointed Matt Seaford as sales and development director.

Since starting as trainee sales in 2006, Mr Seaford has focused on identifying new markets and opportunities, increasing new business within the flexo labels and carton board packaging.

His achievements include having his customers’ labels shortlisted in the FlexoTech Awards for the past three years, winning their category in 2016.

Commenting on his new appointment Mr Seaford said, ‘It’s a privilege to be on the board and I’m ambitious for growth in 2020. We’ve listened to our customers and with ‘just in time’ printing, some markets are decreasing their order volumes, we’ve invested in a new Mark Andy digital label press to support the flexo departments and open us up to approach further markets.’
