After careful consideration and strategic planning, COLOP Austria has announced the decision to restructure the business in the UK, transfer the business to a new distribution partner and close its UK branch. The decision aligns with the broader business strategy of COLOP to enhance efficiency and streamline its operations
The business activities of COLOP UK will be seamlessly transferred to new distribution partner, Greenstik Materials Ltd. Greenstik Materials has proven to be a trusted business partner of COLOP UK over the last few years and has extensive experience in manufacturing and UK wide distribution with an excellent reputation.
COLOP UK and all its associated brands are now operated by Greenstik Materials. During the transition period the operation will continue from the Birmingham site until March 31st, 2024. Part of the COLOP UK team will also transfer to the Greenstik team.
Based in Bridlington on the East Coast of Yorkshire, Greenstik Materials Ltd is a leading supplier to the home crafting market. In addition, they also supply the digital print & graphic industry.
Brett Gregory, director of Greenstik Materials commented, ‘we are delighted to have taken on the COLOP brand and its associated partners such as REINER. This fits well with what we already do and having been a customer for COLOP Digital & COLOP Arts & Crafts, the transition will add the core components of the COLOP brand and add another dimension to Greenstik Materials. We are looking forward to developing the brands further into the UK market.”
