Welcome to this brief online overview of Catalogs America.
We hope that you find it interesting and that we have the opportunity,
at some point in the near future, to show you our facility
in person. 
Since 1974, we have been working with catalogers–sharing your successes, and we hope, making some contributions along the way. Your growth has been our growth and has allowed us to keep at the forefront of the rapid and dynamic changes on our side of the partnership. We have the newest toys and we continue to invest in them to remain an efficient partner.
Over the past few years, we have seen an acceleration towards consolidation in the printing industry. This has created a few giants and left but a handful of mid-sized, privately-held companies. We are proud to be one of these. With what we see in the marketplace, we are more convinced than ever that in a service-oriented business such as ours...we hold the edge.
Thanks for your interest. We hope to see you in Gordonsville.
