Farewell Reg Hammond: a tribute from Andrew Price

Stream Solutions chief, Andrew Price, has some kind words for Lilyfield Printing’s departing owner, Reg Hammond.

I recently read your article regarding the sale of Lilyfield Printing. In the years that I have been in this industry I have witnessed the fantastic growth that this business has had, driven mainly by a true gentleman in Mr Reg Hammond (pictured).

Reg has always impressed me with his "straight up and down" style and no-nonsense approach to business. Reg has led his business through some tough times to become one of the premium printing businesses in the industry.

Lilyfield has been an innovator over the years and a company that truly understood the importance of branding. Who can forget the black Lilyfield van running around the Sydney CBD?

As sad as it is to see someone like Reg Hammond leave the industry, it would appear, as has always been the case, Reg has looked after his staff first, ensuring they have a secure future with a global industry player.

This industry will sadly miss Reg's sense of humour and love of life, something we could all do a little more of!

I personally would like to wish Reg all the very best for his future plans and will miss his unique character in this industry.
