Xact Labelling acquires Wickliffe! (2nd May 2005)

Xact is currently undergoing a highly successful growth phase and this latest step, which became effective on 1 February 2005, reaffirms the company’s leadership in the specialised field of self-adhesive labels with the acquisition of the labels division of Wickliffe. 

Clients of Xact and Wickliffe can now look forward to even greater benefits over time as the newly enlarged company pools its expertise. Mike Davis, Managing Director of Xact Labelling, said, ‘There is always the worry that as a company expands it loses focus on its customers and loses the personal touch that helps make any business relationship mutually profitable and enjoyable.

‘In this case there are no such concerns. We have always been proud of our customer-focused, service-oriented philosophy, and that will not change.’

Mr Davis went on to explain that Wickliffe’s customers would continue to be serviced by Wickliffe’s representatives. Likewise, the personal contact Xact customers currently enjoyed with their Xact representative would not be affected.

‘In fact,’ Mr Davis added, ‘customers of both companies will enjoy even greater benefits from the pooling of talents, expertise and resources between two leaders in this highly specialised industry.’ 

Established in 1996, Xact Labelling is based in West Auckland and operates throughout New Zealand and in Australia. The merger means that Xact now increases its staff from 12 to 30, and can boast over 100 years of combined experience in the printing industry.   

Meanwhile Wickliffe, founded as a stationery printer in 1948 can apply more focus to its core business, which today it identifies as business information management.

Xact and Wickliffe customers should contact their representatives if they require further information, or can visit Xact’s new website at www.xactlabels.co.nz.
