Business Summary
Markets, Products & Services
This niche company specializes in higher-margin, short-run custom printing (runs of less than 10,000 pieces, with short turnaround times, i.e., 3-5 days). It did a significant one-time, low margin run in 2005 valued at approx. $400k, see below. Its sales are split between custom printing & packaging for the multimedia industry and local commercial printing. The multimedia revenue is primarily driven by printing brokers with a significant portion being shipped within California. Approximately 50% of its sales are derived outside of the domiciled state where it serves the printing & packaging for the multimedia industry, CD music distributors, and computer hardware and software companies. The company has built a strong reputation for high-quality services including short-run commercial printing, multimedia printing and packaging, a fully equipped bindery, and total fulfillment services.
Ownership
The current owner acquired 100% control in 1997 and has over 35 years experience in the industry. He closed a digital pre-press subsidiary in 1998, and acquired a commercial printer in December 1999. He works part-time in sales selling both commercial and multimedia print. The owner owns the building personally, with rent at market.
Sales & Marketing
There are 4 sales personnel, 2.5 inside, 1.5 outside. The sales team is also split between (1.5) commercial and (2.5) multimedia print sales. Sales quote software was developed to price quotes immediately, accurately, and have that quote become the invoice and post into A/R. The largest customer represents less than 2% of sales. Key personnel and the owner desire to remain after the sale.
Equipment
Management has transitioned into digital technology by continually investing in computer hardware and software to implement digital, direct-to-plate production utilizing Rampage workflow with an HP 3050 Indigo digital press. A software package allows customers to track print jobs via the company website.
New digital technology, well-maintained facilities, and an excellent business model have positioned the company for exceptional profitability in the future.
In 2003, the Company upgraded to a Komori Lithrone 628, semi-automated, with coater, a Fuji Dart Luxel T6000 CTP III Platesetter, and a Rampage System. In 2005, it added to its short-run capabilities by installing an HP 3050 Indigo 6-color press capable of runs of 1 to 1,000 at 4,000 pieces per hour. A Gima Piccola Packaging machine and the Z100 CD Overwrapper streamline the CD and print material inserting and wrapping. A new Itotec cutter was purchased in 2007.
