A WORCESTER printing business is celebrating its 20th anniversary.

First Paige Printers, in St John's, opened its doors back in 1997 and 20 years later it is still going strong.

The business was opened by Jon Orton, who was previously at the First Paige branch in Malvern since 1990.

"St John's didn't have a printing shop when we arrived," he said.

"Local people were pleased with the new service we provided and have been loyal to us.

"We've been well-supported by many local businesses over the last 20 years."

Mr Orton says advances in technology mean the business has had to change and evolve over the last 20 years – but although it now has a successful online operation, First Paige remains first and foremost a high street shop.

"We pride ourselves on dealing face-to-face with our many customers old and new.

"Advances in technology and the financial climate have brought great challenges to our industry in recent years, however we have embraced the new technology with new ideas and services."
