Has THE COLOR COMPANY made a deal to acquire Service Point USA’s assets (perhaps some, maybe all)? UPDATED Nov 27

The Color Company (TCC), a graphic imaging services enterprise
based in the U.K., with approximately 10 locations in the U.K. (primarily in
London) and with one location in NYC, is rumored to have inked a deal to
acquire SP USA’s accounts receivable and SP USA’s customer contracts.

If this is
true, this will be an interesting story to follow.

When I
visited TCC’s web-site, I did not see any indication that TCC offers A/E/C
reprographics services or OnSite (FM) services, and both of those segments were
reportedly the largest revenue drivers in SP USA’s business.

Someone has
also indicated that Kevin Eyers, the former Managing Director of SP USA, is involved
with TCC, but, at this point, that’s simply speculation. (if this is true, that would be really,
really interesting!)

After we put up the above post, we sent off an e-mail to The Color Company. Below, you’ll see the e-mail we sent AND the response we received:

Hi,

I’m an industry blogger, my blog is
located at http://reprographics.blogspot.com

I was told this morning – by someone
else in my industry in the U.S. – that The Color Company has purchased the
assets of Service Point USA.

Is that true?

Thanks,

Joel Salus

Dear Joel,

Thank you for your mail.

We have no comment to make at this time.

Your article speculates we could be working with a Kevin
Eyers which is untrue.

We also do know AEC reprographics and on site and near
site print facilities for our clients being the leading reprographics company
in Central London.

Kind Regards,
