Minuteman Press

Minuteman Press International, Inc. is the world’s largest printing franchise. From it’s inception in 1973, Minuteman has carved a unique position in the printing industry and expanded on it to become the #1 rated franchise year after year.

This success can be attributed to a hard work ethic both by the support staff and each one of the over 950 independent owners worldwide.

Minuteman’s beginning was much more humble than its world renowned presence that exists today. Roy Titus, the founder, saw a need for a print shop that could serve virtually all print-related needs of a business. Being in the corporate world for years, he knew better than most the shortcomings of the instant print shops of the times. All businesses, large or small, from high-tech to your neighborhood shops, all use printed material in the daily operation of their business. Roy saw the magnitude of the industry, and the wide market base potential.

Roy decided to take control of his destiny, not to mention the multi-billion dollar printing industry. The first Minuteman store was opened by Roy’s son, Bob, in Plainview, NY in 1973 and more followed shortly thereafter. Today his vision expands all over the globe. In 1995, we crossed the Atlantic and started opening locations in the United Kingdom. In 1996, we entered South Africa and in 1998 we entered Australia. Today, there are over 40 franchises in each of these three countries. These figures attest to not only our growth, but also the strength of our name! As a Minuteman Press owner, you will have a unique place in the printing industry, having the capability to serve virtually all the printing needs facing a business.
