NAPL Chief Economist Gives ‘State of the Industry’ Address at Top Management Conference

For those companies that are best prepared, significant growth opportunities remain; those unprepared will be left behind, Paparozzi cautioned.

SANTA BARBARA, CA—MARCH 8, 2007—At a special “State of the Industry” presentation that opened the program portion of NAPL’s Top Management Conference 2007 on Thursday morning, March 8, NAPL Vice President and Chief Economist Andrew Paparozzi told the record crowd of more than 250 attendees that the printing industry “is in expansion. Our sales grew at their fastest rate in eight years in 2006 and will continue to grow, although at a noticeably slower pace. Volume has finally regained pre-recession levels. And we’ve even regained some pricing power and profitability.”
