Revenue: £49.2m (-4%)

Net profit: 9.2% Staff: 38

Billing itself as the UK's largest printer reseller, Printerland claims it is on course to ship around 140,000 printers this year. According to accounts it shared with us, the Greater Manchester-based outfit managed to grow net profit from £3.9m to £4.5m in its year to 31 March 2021, despite a four per cent revenue dip. Vendor partners include Brother, Canon, Epson, HP, Kyocera, Lexmark, OKI, Ricoh and Xerox. It is betting on surging uptake for managed print among its SMB clients in 2022.

Covid impact

Skyrocketing demand for WFH devices in the wake of lockdown has seen Printerland sell more devices, but at lower ASPs, since Covid struck (see interview with Printerland MD James Kight, p?, for more).
