Chowdry and his team worked through the evening to print, collate and bind 500 copies of the 16-page colour brochure, which they then delivered to a grateful promotions team at 1.00 am the next day - well before the launch event morning deadline.
Chowdry commented: "Dedication and service are the hallmark of Prontaprint and I intend to make sure that's the case at Prontaprint Fulham.
We undertook this job just as we were in the middle of re-opening work but it shows what we are capable of." Prontaprint's national managing director, Laird MacKay, paid tribute to Chowdry and his team at the official opening of Prontaprint Fulham.

Eighty thousand charity Christmas cards have been distributed to staff at banking organisation Halifax Bank of Scotland (HBOS) across the UK by Adare using its marketing communications portal, MC2.
The event was also attended by John Lawrence, the manager of Hammersmith and Fulham Chamber of Commerce.
Laird commented: "We are very pleased to welcome Tahir in to the 175-strong national network of Prontaprint centres.
His business background means he is ideally placed to offer positive advice and support to local companies when it comes to communicating in print to customers, staff, suppliers and partner organisations." Chowdry has retained two staff previously working at the centre and recruited two professional graphic designers, to ensure continuity of client knowledge and he is now embarking on a contact campaign with local businesses.
As well as high speed digital print technology, he has also invested in a high end litho printing press to meet customer needs for fine quality colour printing.
The Fulham franchisee added: "We've already won back around 75 per cent of the business done before the takeover and are picking up business from the many PR and creative businesses in the area.
Fulham is a vibrant area full of the kind of start-up businesses that can benefit from our ability to produce high quality marketing material but, with the backing of the national Prontaprint network, we are also capable of dealing with much bigger organisations as well as high volume printing.".
