FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
26 April 2018, Auckland, NZ
Darryl Mackie,
Director of Sales for Inkwise Print, has
announced they have secured
the contract to print Arrival magazine at their modern facility in Rolleston,
Christchurch.
“Having a publication like Arrival magazine is great for Inkwise and a real boost for the Christchurch economy.
There are only 3 suppliers in New Zealand that are capable of producing a magazine the volume and quality of Arrival, so it’s great to have secured this deal for a Christchurch business. Arrival is an iconic part of New Zealand tourism with over 300,000 copies printed every year and we are stoked to see it being made right here in the South Island,” says Mackie.
Managing Editor of Arrival, Shane Stoneman commented, “We are very pleased to have Arrival printed in New Zealand and particularly in the South Island.
Our directors have strong family ties to Christchurch but most importantly Inkwise have done a great job with the current issue of Arrival which has grown to 160 pages, including 23 pages in Chinese. A long term relationship has started.” From its inception 16 years ago, Arrival has been the leading tourism magazine for international visitors. Print is proving as popular as ever with more than 5,000 copies of Arrival picked up every week by groups of international FIT’s. “We are also seeing a stronger pick up in Autumn and Winter, indicating the seasonal strategy of Tourism New Zealand and Tourism Industry Aotearoa is working,” adds Stoneman.
