large format printer

Ian Daisley is a self-employed photographer working from his studio at Via Gellia Mills near Cromford. He undertakes photograpy work for businesses and private clients in areas such as products, property interiors and exteriors, people, food and drink. He also provides fine art printing services as well as graphic design, layout and printing for items such as books, leaflets and brochures.

The £1,200 Small Business Adaptation Grant from Derbyshire Dales District Council helped purchase a new large format printer. The printer is new technology for the company and allows large size prints up to A1 to be produced, offering new business opportunities.

Ian Daisley says:

As a small sole trader business, every little bit of support makes a huge difference. Being grant funded by Derbyshire Dales has made this purchase possible and has provided me with the technology to move forward and enhance my existing services.
