To mark the occasion, the firm gave away a £1,200 tech bundle to one lucky customer. The milestone comes just two years after the firm began part of the Onlineprinters group. Solopress also recently welcomed Simon Cooper as its new managing director to head the company.
The £30m turnover business has experienced substantial growth over the past 14 years with the firm attributing a large part of its success to its quick turnaround times. According to the firm, it delivers around 77% of jobs within 24 hours.
Aron Priest, co-founder of Solopress says: “Setting up the business 20 years ago, we could never have dreamed of the levels of success we’ve had. Every year we push the boundaries further and further and our 2,000,000th order is another achievement for the company which I’m immensely proud of.
It is a representation of our presence in the market, our commitment to our customers and the result of having a hard-working team behind you”

The lucky client who received the tech bundle was Cyclepods, a company which provides cycle parking solutions worldwide. The firm recently completed a sizeable project for London Midland.
Ellie Blackman, marketing manager of Cyclepods explains how the firm didn’t order specifically to win the competition. She says: “We have been using Solopress for around 5 years now because of their turnaround times.
“The tech has already been put to good use, sprucing up our work environment. It’s a great start to 2019 for Cyclepods and a sign of a great year ahead.”
