Ryman and sister company Robert Dyas have signed a five-year partnership with photo printing specialist CEWE.
The agreement will see CEWE’s Photostations installed in the majority of Ryman and Robert Dyas stores, with the rollout due to be completed this autumn. The move follows a successful trial and will bring instant photo and ID printing services to more than 200 UK high streets.
The Photostations offer instant photo printing, biometric-compliant ID photo services and access to CEWE’s full product range via integrated online ordering.
“This service offers another great reason for our customers to come into the store,” said Shaun Procter, Head of Business Development at Ryman. “CEWE’s reputation for quality and ease of use, combined with our trusted high street presence, gives customers easy access to convenient, high-quality photo printing and ID services – right on their doorstep.”
CEWE UK Managing Director Petra Felgen added that the partnership would help bring CEWE’s technology and product offering to a wider audience: “By combining CEWE’s advanced technology with the extensive retail footprint of Ryman and Robert Dyas, we’re enabling even more people to discover our quick and easy Instant Photos, helping to create photo memories that last.”
The rollout forms part of the Theo Paphitis Retail Group’s broader strategy to enhance the in-store experience and introduce new value-added services.
