Tim Freeman, President of PIA of New York State, said that his organization welcomes the opportunity to serve members in the newly acquired area. “The Metro New York/Northern New Jersey/Long Island area has long been recognized as home to an extensive and world class print community. Individually, we are talking about companies that are industry leaders in production capabilities and techniques, human resource systems, creativity in product development and marketing to say nothing about a vendor community that includes world leaders in the development of industry technology that is bringing unparalleled productivity improvements to our industry.” Freeman said, “The sheer numbers in this new territory are impressive. According to the latest PIA/GATF Print Market Atlas, this newly united territory includes over 4,500 printing firms, employing over 115,000 people and generating over $18 billion in annual sales.”
