Product Reviews

Postscript: hamza hamid

How did you get into printing?

After being a banker throughout my career, the shift to the printing industry was a result of pursuing a more challenging role in a different industry.

What do you like most about your job?

The opportunity to build long lasting relationships.

What is the worst thing about your job?

We don't live in a perfect world, so no matter what you do, there will always be things that don't go your way.. that is life, you have to live with it� another thing I could add is losing out on a deal due to macro economic factors.

What would be your dream job?

I am living it.

What do you like about living in this part of the world?

The social security.

What is your favourite phrase or saying?

Success is the result of foresight and resolution. Foresight depends on deep thinking and planning, and the most important factor of planning is, to keep your secrets to yourself.

What makes you laugh?

People who know little but speak the most.

Which was your most embarassing moment?

I have had a few, but having them printed in PrntWeek would just take them to another level.

If you could change anything in the world, it would be..

Eradicate poverty.

What is the best deal you have pulled off..?

'Best Deal' is a subjective term but personally, the last concluded deal which ends with customer satisfaction is the best deal as it paves the way to the next deal.

What genre of music do you like?

I like romantic music.

What is your most greatest luxury?

Parents.

What is your greatest fear?

Nothing really.

Who do you admire in print?

My managing director at Mex Print Pack Supplies, for his ability to envision the future and spot opportunities.

Where would you go if you could time travel?

610 AD

How would you like to be remembered?

Two words, honest and trustworthy

Life is...?

Life is just one half of the journey
