HISTORY & KNOW-HOW In 1996, I opened a workshop in Les Paccots in order to bring together all the furniture and production equipment that I had previously gathered little by little in my parents' garage. During the first years I mainly work under mandate for a large sign and neon company in the Lausanne area for whom I produce, in my premises, all the screen printing. But I also carry out important advertising collages and sign assemblies throughout Switzerland (specialising in acrobatic work) thanks to an ingenious installation vehicle. Gradually I refocused on my own more regional clientele while keeping a vision on the advertising techniques and trends of the country. Over the years I have expanded my premises, surrounded myself with qualified collaborators and above all can now pass on this magnificent profession of advertising director to my apprentices as a trainer. In 2010, after 14 years in Les Paccots, we moved to Châtel-St-Denis like a desalpation from the mountains to the plain. The hall of more than 700m2 with premises twice as spacious next to the station, allows us to integrate new technological acquisitions, propelling us as a pioneer company in Switzerland in the field of direct digital printing on textiles (DTG Direct To Garment). Being as passionate about graphic design as I am about management, I am still able to take charge, control and supervise all the steps from A to Z. In 2011, we took over the activities of SoraPrint in Vuadens, essentially based on textile screen printing. In 2012, the company, which had been a sole proprietorship since 1996, was transformed into a limited liability company. I remain the sole owner, without any debt. Publicity Shop Ltd. was born. As we continue to expand our production equipment for textile printing, we become an important factor in this industry for small and medium-sized printing series. We confirm our position as a specialist in the marking of sports equipment as well as digital printing for online shops and other retailers. Naturally, we set up our own online shop. In 2013, we took over the activities of Multiloma in Châtel-St-Denis, a company specialising in shop fitting, importing furnishing and signage products for real estate and travel agencies, sports shops and all kinds of shops. In addition to our numerous clients and services in the field we are projected as a company specialised in the opening and relooking of agencies and shops. We take care of both the front of the shop (signs, blinds, window advertising, etc.) and the interior decoration (illuminated displays, decorative interior signs, layout, signage, etc.) In July 2017, after several years of searching, we finally found THE hall in which we could settle permanently by becoming the owner of the premises. From autumn onwards, I put my heart and soul into refurbishing the premises in my own image in an atypical and practical atmosphere. I put all my experience in decoration and construction to use in order to allow my colleagues and myself to work in the most optimal and pleasant conditions possible. So in January 2018 we moved to Semsales, 5 minutes from Châtel, right next to the motorway, where we welcome you with pleasure. There is still a lot to do to make the premises perfect, but we are working on it day after day. We are now more than ten complementary, motivated and versatile employees, which allows us to react quickly in terms of deadlines and logistics. Haunted by an eternal concern for evolution and perfectionism, we try every day to add a string to our bow in order to continually benefit from the knowledge and new technologies linked to our numerous fields of activity, but always with the motto of keeping this workshop on a small scale. I am proud to say that over the years we have become one of the most complete small visual communication workshops in French-speaking Switzerland.
