MANAGING DIRECTORS  STATEMENT

The Gambia Printing and Publishing Corporation was Established by an act of parliament as a public enterprise in 2006. The corporation is the result of a merger of former Book Production and Material Resources Unit (BPMRU) under the Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education charged with the responsibility of providing educational materials (ie teachers guide, pupils texts books etc) for the ministry and National Printing and Publishing Corporation (NPSC) under the central government responsible of providing all necessary printing material such as Government Tax receipts (GTR), other revenue materials for both central,  local  and other government department and agencies.

The rational behind this decision is to enhance and centralized the production of Government revenue materials for efficiency, effectiveness and economy. In addition to fulfilling its responsibilities to government, the corporation has widened its marketing policy into more private sector focus and concentration. It is evident that the corporation despite some challenges has captured significant share in this sector. Some of the reason for this success is attributable to our core competences such as experienced skilled staff and capacity. As the biggest printing and publishing house in the country, the corporation over the years used these competences to compete in the private sector market thereby increasing its market share on an annual basic. These  is not without challenges but are determine to surmount with laid dawn strategies in both short and long time.
