Printvenue targets the Australian market

After it started business in Singapore, Printvenue started operations in Australia with a team of 20 people in marketing, content and sourcing.
It decided on Australia since printing and sourcing personalized groups in Australia was an expensive affair and the market was less competitive.
Saurabh Kochhar, Managing Director of Printvenue also expressed plans of entering Latin America and Europe in the next 4-5 years.
