Speaking about the investments, Malsawm Tluanga, managing director, Inkspot Digiprint Solutions, said, “The investments were made to cater to the growing demand for the print-on-demand market in Mizoram, which was earlier outsourced to neighbouring states. Today, we are equipped to handle all kinds of digital print jobs and a complete binding solution.”

The firm invested in the machineries from Malhotra Graphics based on quality of the product, and the after-sales support offered. “Keeping in mind the remote location of our unit, and the logistical difficulties for immediate and prompt redressal in case of technical snags, the investments were made,” added Tluanga.
