High guys,

I've been asked by a friend to print some of my images onto canvas to go in his cafe but also with price tags.

Now I've never deemed my work good enough to sell but I don't want to let a friend down so I said yes.

My problem is, finding a company that prints good quality canvas, that I won't be paying through the nose for and making a bit of profit on. I also don't want them to cost the earth as they will be sitting in a cafe so won't have a high cliental to afford expensive canvases.

Every photo shop near me wants £80 so that £80 before I even make any profit on them which is far too much.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Scott.

Ahh ...let me get this straight...you want a good quality product but are not prepared to pay to pay a premium for the quality. As you have pointed out, the clientèle haven't got any money to buy expensive ones....why not lower your profit margin from the supplier.

There are lots of canvas suppliers on the market, you get what you pay for.

Just search for canvas on here and there are umpteen treads about such matters.
 
For quality then you can't beat either Oxford Image Company or Tradecanvasprint.co.uk

If you want reasonable quality at cheap prices then Snapmad are probably your best bet - your customers might not be quite so impressed though ;)
