Strategic acquisitions by companies like Cenveo, Ennis and WorkflowOne continue to dramatically impact the landscape of the industry. Robert G. Burton, Sr., chairman and chief executive officer of Cenveo, explained the company’s acquisitions strategy in a recent statement: “Acquiring Rx Technology back in July 2006 added strength to, and supplemented, our label operations. Rx is a growing operation that complements our existing business while contributing to our various cross-selling initiatives. In February 2007, we completed the acquisition of Printegra, which was a highly strategic acquisition in the short-run printing marketplace... This acquisition creates the opportunity for Cenveo to better serve its customers and allows us to offer Printegra’s customers Cenveo’s extensive range of products and services. In December 2006, we entered into a definitive merger agreement with Cadmus Communications Corporation, which will form the third largest printing company in North America. Cadmus, with its highly regarded reputation for excellence and strategically niched product offering, is a perfect complement to broaden Cenveo’s product line. These accretive acquisitions position the company nicely for future growth.”
