Huddersfield-based direct mail provider, Propack, has won an award for its ethical practices, as well as being shortlisted in three more prestigious awards programmes.
Founded in 1995, Propack is a leading provider of technology-led print and direct mail solutions, creating innovative campaigns for its clients, producing in excess of 25 million mail packs per year from its 30,000 square foot bespoke site in Huddersfield.
Propack was named as September’s Shooting Star in the monthly award programme hosted by Huddersfield Town A.F.C. Propack was nominated by the judging panel for its commitment to ethical and sustainable mailing practices through its in-house postage brand, Ethical Mail®.
The firm has also been shortlisted in the TheBusinessDesk.com’s Yorkshire Business Masters Awards for recent investments to its Huddersfield-based factory and workforce, as well as being named as a finalist in two categories of the Prolific North Marketing Awards for its work with palliative, neurological and bereavement support charity, Sue Ryder.
In addition, Propack has secured a shortlisting in the 2022 Digital Printer Awards, in the Web-to-Print category, for its work with Christians Against Poverty (CAP) on its print-on-demand storefront.
Propack’s award successes have come from its work throughout the pandemic and beyond, to support its clients and deliver the best campaigns possible achieving stellar results.
The nominations recognise Propack’s £2.7m investment into new technology and equipment for its site as well as its work within the third sector with Sue Ryder and Christians Against Poverty.
The business has achieved a 21 per cent increase to its seven-figure annual turnover, after winning over 30 new clients since January 2021, resulting in a 38 per cent growth in headcount of its production team to 40 employees.
Its campaigns with Sue Ryder and CAP have achieved incredible results, with Sue Ryder’s average gift donation values exceeding forecasts by 140 per cent and the creation of a print-on-demand solution that delivers circa 2,500 orders per year, on time, on brand and on budget for CAP.
Managing director of Propack, Jason Clough, said: “I am incredibly proud of the team for delivering consistent and impressive results that have helped secure these award nominations and the win from Huddersfield Town A.F.C.
“This recognition solidifies my commitment to growing our operations here in Yorkshire, expanding our workforce and ensuring that our stellar client delivery continues for years to come.
“We are lucky to have such wonderful clients, and I am grateful to see our efforts being recognised by these four highly respected organisations.”
