By keeping the business in local hands, we’re not just printing documents; we’re printing a future for our economy.

The NSFW Perspective

While some may see the acquisition of Melody Press by Colour Monster as just another business deal, we at NSFW see it as a masterstroke of local enterprise. It’s a move that promises to bolster the Channel Islands’ economy, support local jobs, and provide customers with a veritable rainbow of printing options. And let’s be honest, in an age where the ‘print is dead’ narrative is as tired as a politician’s promises, this deal shows that there’s still life in the old press yet.

So, hats off to Colour Monster. May your new acquisition be as colourful and monstrous (in the best possible way) as your name suggests. And to the folks at Melody Press, welcome to the future. It’s bright, it’s bold, and it’s printed in high definition.

For our conservative readership, rest assured, this is the kind of local business news that aligns with our values of economic growth, tradition, and innovation. It’s a narrative that rejects the doom and gloom of the digital age and champions the tangible, the real, the printed word. And in a world that’s increasingly virtual, that’s something worth holding onto – preferably on high-quality, sustainably sourced paper.

As for the impact on Jersey, let’s just say that the next time you’re holding a beautifully printed brochure or business card, it might just be the handiwork of this new Channel Islands print dynasty. And that, dear readers, is a plot twist worth reading about.
