Minuteman Press, headquartered at 186-188 Portland Rd. in Hove, seems to have new owners, Romi and Russell Pinsent. Under Minuteman Press International’s conversion initiative, they acquired the long-running independent print company TJ’s Branding Solutions, in business for 30 years. TJ’s Branding Solutions provided Romi and Russell with a solid platform to grow the company that Tony Jenner originally founded.
Romi and Russell purchased a signwriting shop that already promotes other companies and has a loyal client base. The work performed at the shop already helps local businesses by developing logos, storefronts, and car livery to help them advertise their enterprises. Romi describes how they will expand the competencies of Minuteman Press in Hove. He said, “We are thrilled and looking forward to supplying new in-house services to our clients. We will be able to execute larger print projects in-house thanks to our Xerox digital printer. We want to establish long-term connections with our current clients so that they return and feel appreciated as we strive hard to help them expand their business! We hope that great experiences and word-of-mouth recommendations will enable us to spread the news about Minuteman Press in Hove, in addition to direct promotion. We will do everything we can to provide the finest service to our customers and to support local companies.”
Tony Jenner stated Minuteman Press Regional Vice President Mark Jones contacted him at the right opportunity and questioned whether he would sell the company. Jenner has been the owner of TJ’s Branding Solutions for more than 30 years, was seeking a change of pace. He wanted to retire and embrace what he had accomplished while spending more time with his family. This was a fantastic chance to sell for a reasonable price without having to pay any broker fees.
Romi and Russell worked in and continue to work in the care industry before franchising. They say that it is a delightful enterprise to operate because it helps society’s most vulnerable individuals, yet it is rife with regulations. They wanted to try something fresh that was more innovative and had room for expansion. They needed a change, and starting a new business looked like the best option. Romi and Russell were especially pleased by their uniformity when visiting numerous Minuteman Press facilities in the United Kingdom and the United States. Romi is grateful for Minuteman Press International’s continuing support and encouragement as she and Russell seek to establish their legacy with Minuteman Press in Hove. Source
