Company Profile

LightVisions was established by its President, Allan Brooks, in 1986 as a traditional photographic lab in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. In 1999 LightVisions converted to a wide format digital inkjet printer and expanded into a new 9,000 square foot facility situated next door to the Winnipeg International Airport. Today the company employs over 35 people, in two plants that encompass over 35,000 square feet of production space. This makes LightVisions one of the largest digital imaging companies in Western Canada. Ideally located at the center of the continent on major trucking routes and next door to Canada’s third busiest 24 hour air freight hub, shipping anywhere in Canada and the USA is quick and cost efficient.

Over the last 25 years LightVisions has stayed on the leading edge of new digital technology allowing clients to be constantly innovative.
