A Real Introduction
I got into print because I love it.
Twenty-seven years ago I started as a typesetter. I've been on press floors, run studios, and bought more print than most people sell in a career. I know what good production looks like — and what it costs you when it isn't.
That's the job now: your account manager, not a sales rep chasing a quota. When you send me a job, you're talking to someone who's actually done the work.
Marc Soal
Oakdene Account Manager & Founder, Trusted Trade Printer
The press behind the promise.
Every job through the Hub runs through Oakdene — trade-only litho and UV, standards kept tight for over a century. No retail counter, no direct clients. Trade work is the only thing they do.
It's why Marc can promise consistency: one partner, one standard, every time — running on an RMGT SRA1 8-colour UV press most printers only dream about.
