While we celebrated the 150th birth anniversary of the Father of the Nation on 2 October 2019, we also marked the completion of 5 years of the Swachh Bharat mission. On this remarkable day, the prime minister of India also made an announcement regarding his vision of making India plastic-free.
With the buzz surrounding the possible ban on single-use plastics, the country’s citizens are concerned about the implications of the decision and are questioning the sustainability of various businesses owing to these major changes. One of these speculators belongs to one of the oldest marketing industries, the outdoor advertising and signage sector.
With rumors surrounding the ban on flex and banners, the buzz is around the future of digital print business in India. Will flex be banned for sure? What are the alternatives? What pressure do these alternatives put on the bottom line of the print businesses? Who can offer these alternatives? How can I find a trusted partner? The question-list is endless.
