    Our Story

    Rooted in values.
    Driven by community.

    For decades, businesses, organisations, and communities have needed one thing above all when it comes to print: a reliable guide they can trust to help them show up properly. That is where our story begins.

    The Foundation

    From legacy
    to evolution.

    Not just a rebrand

    BA Print began as a legacy. Long before becoming part of BA Holding Group, our roots were planted through a deep belief in hard work, innovation, and service.

    Built on community trust

    What exists today is the continuation of a journey started decades ago — built through family, sacrifice, and a constant drive to improve. We grew from an independent print shop into a recognised name across Birmingham.

    Transforming for the future

    Our story is not just about printing. It is about carrying something forward, protecting what made it valuable, and transforming it for a new generation. We are here to guide you with experience, honesty, and dependable delivery.

    The Journey

    Decades of discipline.

    Where it all began

    The family printing legacy began abroad. At a time when modern printing technology was still new in the region, our late uncle saw what others could not yet see. He travelled to Germany to bring modern printing technology back to his region and launched an independent company called Shu’la — meaning flame. It was a spark of progress that would later grow into something much bigger.

    Where it all began

    Why the business had to evolve.

    Every strong business reaches a point where growth requires more than hard work alone. The world changed, and the role of print changed too.

    A Changing World

    Customer expectations and technology shifted. Businesses no longer just needed something printed—they needed to look credible and move quickly.

    More Than an Order-Taker

    They needed to stay consistent and work with a team that understood the bigger picture. They needed a guide, not just a printer.

    The 2025 Chapter

    The values stayed the same, but the business needed to evolve. Innovation started the journey, and innovation shaped the future.
