Photo-Me helped by digital kiosks

The growing popularity of digital photography has helped photo-booth operator Photo-Me International enjoy a 56% rise in annual pre-tax profits, according to the BBC.

The firm has benefited from the roll-out of digital media kiosks, which enable people to print pictures from digital cameras or mobile phones.

Photo-Me has an international network of 28,000 photo booths, in locations such as railway stations and Post Offices.

There are already 3,000 operational digital media kiosks and the firm hopes to add an extra 5,000 by the end of 2005".

Users can print out pictures by either plugging in their digital camera's memory card, or by using infrared or Blue Tooth wireless technology.
