DATA Communications Management Corp. Reports Continued Progress Advancing Its Plant Optimization and Strategic Capital Investments

Company Expects to Substantially Complete Operations Integration by End of 2024

BRAMPTON, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--DATA Communications Management Corp. (TSX: DCM; OTCQX: DCMDF) (“DCM” or the “Company”), a leading provider of marketing and business communication solutions to companies across North America, today reported continued progress consolidating its plant network from 14 to 10 main production facilities to improve its operating efficiency following the Company’s 2023 acquisition of Moore Canada Corporation (“MCC”).

Most recently, DCM completed the consolidation of its Thistle Printing and Toronto commercial printing operations, bringing together the two facilities at 180 Bond Ave. in Toronto. DCM has invested in new state-of-the-art equipment in the plant and completed other upgrades to the facility, providing additional capacity for future growth and production efficiencies.

“I am very pleased with the progress our teams have made over the last 12 months in the planning and execution of our strategy to optimize our operations network,” said Richard Kellam, President & CEO of DCM. “We are also making strategic capital investments in the latest technology and equipment in our remaining plants consistent with our commitment to providing high quality solutions for our clients, and investing in markets where we see strong potential for growth.”

The company has also accelerated production and equipment moves from its Fergus, Ontario and Trenton, Ontario factories to its Drummondville, Quebec and Brampton, Ontario factories, respectively. DCM expects to substantially complete these two remaining planned plant closures and associated production transfers by the end of 2024.
