Managing Director Laurence Allen, who set up the business in 1988 and an external investor now own 100% of the business. MPP has moved from its freehold base in Crystal Palace into purpose built premises, which it will share with its printer at Sidcup, Kent.
MPP has to date focused on specialist publications within the cleaning, hygiene, healthcare and facilities management media. It publishes Cleaning Hygiene Today, Facilities Management Journal and The Flooring Magazine and has recently launched Healthcare Hygiene Management magazine.
In addition MPP produces a number of specialist yearbooks, ezines and directories for its specialist sectors, and organises trade exhibitions and events in England and the Irish Republic.
Laurence Allen said: "I now have my dream come true - I have the entire business in one location where as previously it was fragmented between the north of England and South East London. We have great production and technical synergy with our printers and we will benefit from their excellence in digital production and printing. I have two new publications to launch in the coming months and am currently recruiting additional staff".
All staff have been transferred to the new offices. (MPP's new address is Sparta Works, 487 Blackfen Road, Sidcup, Kent DA15 9NP. Tel: 020 8298 6490.)
