Print Consultancy and Procurement

One partner. Every print touchpoint.

As brands grow, print gets complicated fast. Packaging, labels, POS, signage, marketing collateral, compliance updates, reprints, new launches. Suddenly you are juggling suppliers, specs, timelines and costs. That is where INKT steps in.

Our Print Consultancy and Procurement service is designed for startup to medium size brands who want expert guidance, smarter sourcing and a single trusted partner to manage everything print.

We become your print department without the overhead.

What we do

INKT provides end to end print consultancy and print procurement, helping you plan, specify, source and manage multiple print products across your business. From one off projects to ongoing programs, we make print simple, consistent and cost effective.

We work across litho and digital print, labels, packaging, signage and specialty print, ensuring every item works together visually, technically and commercially.

Who this is for

This service is ideal for:

• Startups launching their first product or brand

• Growing businesses managing multiple SKUs or suppliers

• Marketing teams needing reliable print expertise

• Brands who want better cost control and consistency

• Businesses who care about quality, sustainability and efficiency

If you are too busy to manage print projects, or unsure if you are getting the best outcomes, this service is built for you.

Our approach

1. Discovery and audit

We start by understanding your business, brand and goals. This includes reviewing your current print products, suppliers, specifications, volumes and pain points. Where relevant, we identify inefficiencies, inconsistencies and cost saving opportunities.

2. Print strategy and specification

We create a clear print roadmap. This may include material recommendations, finishes, formats, sustainability options, compliance requirements and future proofing for growth. Every product is specified correctly to avoid errors, delays and unnecessary costs.

3. Supplier sourcing and negotiation

Using our trusted network of local and national suppliers, we source the right partners for each job. We manage quoting, compare options and negotiate on your behalf to achieve the best balance of quality, price and lead time.

4. Production management

We manage the full production process from artwork handover through to delivery. This includes proofing, press checks where required, quality control and timeline management. You deal with one point of contact while we handle the detail.

5. Ongoing print procurement

For brands with ongoing needs, we act as your long term print procurement partner. We manage reorders, updates, new products and supplier performance, ensuring consistency and efficiency as your business grows.

What we can manage

Our consultancy and procurement service can cover:

• Product packaging and cartons

• Labels including complex and embellished labels

• Flexible packaging

• Marketing collateral and sales tools

• Compliance and regulatory print

• Photography and print ready assets

If it is printed, we can manage it.
