Who we print for on the Southside
The Southside has one of Glasgow’s most distinctive independent-business communities — the cafes and delis of Strathbungo and Pollokshaws Road, the boutiques and salons around Shawlands Cross, the tradespeople working out of G41 and G42. Here is who we serve most often.
Independent cafes, delis & bakeries
Menus, loyalty cards, A-boards and window graphics for the independents along Pollokshaws Road, Victoria Road and Kilmarnock Road. Waterproof synthetic menu stock available.
Salons, barbers & wellbeing
Appointment cards, price lists, window vinyls and pull-up banners for hair, beauty and wellbeing businesses across Shawlands, Battlefield and Langside.
Southside professionals
Letterheads, business cards and presentation folders for solicitors, accountants and consultants working from home offices in Pollokshields, Newlands and Giffnock.
Tradespeople & contractors
Van signage, roller banners, site boards and heavy-stock business cards for builders, electricians and joiners serving the wider South Side.
Schools, nurseries & charities
Fundraising flyers, sponsor boards, class photos and event posters at not-for-profit rates. Regular work for Southside schools and charities.
Creative studios & small brands
Swing tags, gift vouchers, brand postcards and zines for makers, artists and independent product brands across the Southside creative community.
Regular Southside clients include cafes on Victoria Road, salons around Shawlands Cross, and tradespeople based in Pollokshields and Langside.
Delivery times by Southside postcode
The Southside spreads from Strathbungo down to Muirend, and the M77 makes most of it a quick courier hop from our G3 studio. Here is what to expect by postcode for same-day and next-day work.
Pollokshields, Strathbungo, Dumbreck
Same-day onto Nithsdale Road and the Strathbungo cafe strip; around 10 minutes from the studio via the M77.
Govanhill, Queens Park, Battlefield
Same-day to Victoria Road and the Queens Park retail parade — a regular drop for menu and loyalty-card reprints.
Shawlands, Mansewood, Pollokshaws
Same-day to Shawlands Cross and the Shawlands Arcade traders; a short courier hop from G3 outside rush hour.
Cathcart, Netherlee, Muirend
Same-day across Cathcart and Muirend; Clarkston-edge addresses covered on a next-day timed slot.
Independent-retail reprints (menus, loyalty cards, window vinyls) are our most common Southside same-day job — small runs welcome with no minimum-order surcharge.

Southside printing — common questions
Quick answers for G41, G42 and G43 customers.
Do you deliver to the Southside same-day?
Yes. Orders approved by 11am on working days qualify for same-day courier to G41, G42 and G43 — typically arriving before 5pm. Our Washington Street studio is a 10-minute drive from Shawlands Cross via the M77.
Which Southside postcodes do you cover?
G41 (Pollokshields, Strathbungo, Dumbreck), G42 (Govanhill, Queens Park, Battlefield, Langside), G43 (Shawlands, Mansewood, Pollokshaws) and G44 (Cathcart, Netherlee, Muirend). Free delivery on orders over £50 across all four postcodes.
Do you print for small independent retailers?
That is most of our Southside work. Small runs are welcome — we will print 100 flyers or 50 business cards without a surcharge, which is unusual for trade printers. Independents on Kilmarnock Road, Victoria Road and the Shawlands Arcade are regular clients.
Can I collect from a Southside location?
Right now collection is from our G3 studio at Washington Street only — about 10 minutes from Shawlands outside rush hour, with free pay-and-display parking outside. For Southside customers who prefer not to travel, free delivery on orders over £50 usually makes more sense anyway.
