In today’s ever-changing technology space, many have wondered about how the advent of digital would affect the photo printing market. Digital cameras have become ubiquitous, even as the functionality of mobile phone cameras has increased dramatically and social media platforms improve their photo sharing capabilities. Would all of these concurrent developments mark the end of photo printing? Although these changes have had a substantial impact on retail photo processing centres, there is still room for photo print providers to grow. According to Keypoint Intelligence’s most recent Value of Print Forecast, roughly 24.3 million square meters of photos will be printed on a global basis by 2023.
