LandmarkPrint earns top 20 ranking in industry survey

STAMFORD -- LandmarkPrint Inc., a Stamford-based provider of on-demand digital and commercial printing, has achieved a top 20 ranking for the fourth straight year in a national industry survey.

In its annual "Top 100" survey published in June, Quick Printing magazine, a leading print trade publication, ranked LandmarkPrint number 11 among quick printers in North America. Many of the companies have multiple locations, however, and that same survey ranked LandmarkPrint number two among printers with a single location. LandmarkPrint's ranking rose from number 14 in last year's survey.

This is the 10th year LandmarkPrint has participated in the Quick Printing survey, debuting at number 49 in 1998.

The Quick Printing survey is based on a number of factors, including annual sales, annual growth, number of locations, number of employees, sales per employee and sales per location. In addition to consistently achieving a high industry ranking, LandmarkPrint has been awarded certification by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) as a provider of eco-friendly paper products that have been tracked from responsibly managed forests. As part of its certification, LandmarkPrint is authorized to use the exclusive FSC logo to be placed on its customer communications when using these select FSC paper products.

"LandmarkPrint is proud to be doing our share to help the environment as part of a custodial chain that is committed to preserving the earth's natural beauty," states Carmine Iannacchino, one of the company's principal partners. "We are pleased that our FSC certification will allow our customers to choose environmentally-friendly papers. The use of the logo will help identify to their end users their responsible choice."

LandmarkPrint is a full-service provider servicing mid to large corporations in the Tri-State area. The company offers a variety of print solutions, personalized marketing services, direct mail and fulfillment.
