The PDI Group (Montreal) has entered into an exclusive agreement through its wholly owned subsidiary Trans-Optique Inc., to merge its large format printing operations with those of Imagerie DB Inc. (Boisbriand, QC) and LVP.ca Inc. (Terrebonne QC) to create one of the industry’s leading large-format printing companies. The three companies will start pooling their collective resources as they prepare for an early summer move into a new facility that will unite them under one roof. The new company will be called PDI Large Format Solutions Incorporated.
PDI Group COO, Gaetano DiTrapani and President Jamie Barbieri have confirmed that this recent move is in keeping with PDI’s strategic plans for growth and diversification within their offer of integrated print solutions. “The merger of our three companies will create an amazing synergy where our creative approach, our production capacity and our sales expertise will allow us to bring to market a greater depth and integration of capabilities that will define us as undeniable leaders in this domain,” the executives added.
According to Imagerie DB President Benoit Paquette and Vice President Denis Paquette, the consolidation of the three companies will result in an “unmatched industry offering with a robust production platform and leading-edge technology that will provide clients with the widest range of large format services in the province.” Francis Tellier, President of LVP.ca Inc., added that “LVP’s proven strength and experience in creative conceptualizations and consultative approach to customer service will enable customers to utilize truly unique sign and display capabilities to empower their brands and communication strategies.”
PDI Inc. is the largest independent sheetfed printing company in Quebec, providing complete integrated print solutions, pre-media, offset, digital and large format print production, web-to-print, as well as fulfillment, warehousing and direct-mail services to clients in Quebec, across Canada and in the U.S.
