NAPA LABEL PRINTER CLOSES SHOP

North Bay’s largest commercial and wine-label printer, Renaissance Mark, closed its 76,000-sq-ft Napa plant, making room for competitors. Reports the North Bay Business Journal, Renaissance Mark closed the plant on September 29, causing 69 employees to lose their jobs as a result. The company is reportedly planning to shift its print work to Nevada and Montreal, while keeping a small sales staff in Napa.

Other printers, such as Collotype Label USA and Ben Franklin Press & Label, are using this as an opportunity to acquire additional customers and expand their businesses as a result.
