OPI has learned of the passing of Mark Lawson, the former Chairman of iconic UK stationery brand Helix.
Mark and his brother Peter – who died in 2012 – were the last shareholders at the company from the Lawson family, which had bought into the business in 1919 and acquired full ownership in 1954. In early 2012, the business went into administration and was acquired a few weeks later by Maped.
OPI extends its deepest sympathies to Mark’s family.
