SHANGHAI, CHINA, Schawk, Inc., a leading provider of brand development and deployment services, enabling companies of all sizes to connect their brands with consumers, has relocated its Shanghai office to accommodate its growing presence in China.

Forest Li, managing director of Schawk China, said, "With increasing business opportunities in the Chinese market, we are expanding our talent at Anthem Worldwide, Schawk's strategic design division. At the same time, we are bringing Anthem under the same roof as Schawk to offer our clients an integrated brand development and brand deployment experience."

"We are excited about being able to serve our clients from our new office in Shanghai," said Brad Wills, executive vice president of international operations, for Schawk in Asia and Europe. Added Wills, "With a growing employee base in Greater China, we required space that allowed us to design a work environment that would enable us to maximize efficiencies between the stages of concept design and concept turnover."

The new office integrates Anthem's strategy and design services with Schawk's artwork adaptation, premedia (production, colour management), workflow technology and TSR supply chain services (print vendor management), allowing clients to engage seamlessly with brand creators, brand designers and brand deployers to bring new products to market quickly and accurately while creating compelling and consistent brand experiences.

Schawk established operations in Shanghai in 1996, making it the first wholly-owned international company to enter the China market. Since then, Schawk has expanded its presence in China by opening an office in Shenzhen that includes a photography studio designed to accommodate high volume image requirements and deadlines.

The new address for the Schawk and Anthem Worldwide office is: 2nd Floor, General Building South, No. 3079 Shen Jiang Road, JinQiao Export Process Area, Pudong, Shanghai, 201206, P.R.C. The main telephone number is (8621) 5854-5475.
