Welcome to the exciting and ever growing world of Minuteman Press, one of the foremost and prestigious printing franchise organizations in the world! The exceptional growth of Minuteman Press Full Service Printing Centers resulted from our ability to fill a void in the print industry for total business graphic needs. As we expand into other countries around the world, we have found that same void exists in such places as the United Kingdom, South Africa and Australia.

After investigating the industry, we opened our first store in Plainview, New York. Concerned about the lack of capabilities in this store, and the limitations of many "Quick Printers," we dedicated ourselves to opening a more versatile and productive full service print center.

The prototype Minuteman Press center opened in Farmingdale, New York, in 1974. We utilized equipment which allowed us to reach further into the quality printing market and establish a unique niche in the printing industry. Full service printing became, and remains, the basis of the Minuteman concept; a virtual one-stop center for all of your printing and graphic needs. Today, there are over 880 Minuteman Press Full Service Printing Centers throughout the world!

Our concepts, along with our capabilities, have enabled our franchise owners to offer the quality and service necessary to generate a tremendous repeat business. We are also proud of the vast network of franchise owners operating their own Minuteman Press Full Service Printing Centers. These men and women come from all walks of life, most of whom have no prior background in the printing and graphics fields. We are not looking to turn our owners into printers. We are looking for individuals who will be alert to the needs of their business community, and who will manage and motivate their employees to promote their business. We will provide the training for you and your employees, and also provide the latest technical and marketing support to assist you through our strategically located regional support offices.

We at Minuteman Press International trust that you, like hundreds of others, will find this business to be exciting, challenging and rewarding. The Minuteman Press franchise concept has given us the opportunity of offering many people a new way of life. It can be yours too!
