In 1998 Westferry Printers commissioned this review of their expanding printing business. The key to success was printing competing titles on adjacent presses with the workforce unallied to any. In the mid 1980s when Westferry opened on the Isle of Dogs in London's derelict Docklands it was a welcome development. By the mid 2000s the area had become domesticated and incompatible with this type of industry. The business moved and the facility demolished. It had lasted around 20 years.
Footage is available commercially.
