Edward has visited local Thurmaston employer, Qualvis Print and Packaging Ltd, to discuss the business with Chairman, Jason Short, and to see for himself its investment in a state of the art double-digital packaging line - the first such packaging line in the world.
Thurmaston based Qualvis is a successful family-owned company, founded in 1982 and now with a turnover of over £13m, providing jobs for many local people, and continuing to invest and grow. The company is a leading manufacturer of printed cartons and packaging, and many of the familiar brands we see on our supermarket shelves will have had their packaging produced by Qualvis.
Commenting on his visit, and his discussion with Mr Short, Edward said: "Qualvis Print and Packaging Ltd is a great Thurmaston business success story, and it was a great pleasure to be shown round by Jason, and to see the new packaging technology for myself. Jason and his whole team should be very proud of the successful business they have built, which continues to grow and innovate."
