Printed.com expands operations to the US

UK-based online printing specialist Printed.com has officially launched in the United States, taking its services to customers across all 50 states. This expansion represents a major milestone in the company’s growth strategy, supported by an investment of over £1 million in cutting-edge technology and the addition of a third production facility earlier this year, media reports said quoting the company’s press release.

Founded in 2011, Printed.com has earned a reputation as a trusted partner for UK businesses seeking professional printing solutions. With international traffic now accounting for over 2% of total visits, the company is expanding into the US market to meet growing global demand for reliable, high-quality online printing services. Combining a wide selection of products and finishes with personalised customer support, Printed.com is committed to redefining print excellence and delivering an exceptional experience to customers worldwide.

Printed.com is launching its first US print platform, partnering with some of the nation’s top printers to offer over 50 products, including business cards, brochures, flyers, and wedding products. This selection covers approximately 70% of their UK product line and is crafted using state-of-the-art printing technology and premium materials within partner production houses across the US. Customers can expect the same exceptional quality and attention to detail that have made Printed.com a leader in the UK market, supported by rigorous quality control processes.

Printed.com ensures smooth and reliable delivery throughout the US with top-tier courier services, providing dependable shipping to all 50 states, with flexible delivery options designed to suit a variety of customer needs. Additionally, the company offers whitelabel packaging and continues its commitment to eliminating plastic from its packaging, building on the success of its sustainability efforts in the UK.

The company has also unveiled ambitious plans for local expansion, aiming to establish a US-based workforce in 2026. This move underscores Printed.com’s long-term commitment to the American market and its dedication to delivering localised product offerings. For now, all client-facing operations continue to be managed from the company’s UK headquarters.

“Launching in the US marks an exciting milestone for Printed.com,” said Rob Haycock, CEO of Printed.com. “After years of refining our print platform and integration tools, we’ve developed robust support for multi-tenancy and multi-currency. This has allowed us to roll out our Printed.com US-specific ecommerce offering in record time.”

Simon Dunn, managing director of Printed.com, stated, “Our goal is to become one of the leading printing partners for small businesses and wedding customers across the US, utilising the skills and experience gained from over 10 years of ecommerce webprint experience and almost 40 years of print heritage. We’ve long believed that our brand and approach will resonate internationally and can’t wait to bring it to the American market.”

Chris McShane, marketing and product director at Printed.com, expressed excitement about the company’s expansion into the US market: “We’re delighted to support the retail, hospitality, small business sectors, and designers, as well as direct consumers, with our US launch. These vibrant industries thrive on impactful print- whether it’s striking signage to welcome guests, beautifully designed menus and essential marketing materials, or elegantly crafted wedding stationery. Our mission is to help everyone, from entrepreneurs to couples, bring their visions to life. We’re also collaborating with trusted US partners to expand our product range and finishes further, ensuring we continue to meet the diverse needs of our customers.”

The US launch leverages Printed.com’s proven technology platform, which streamlines the ordering process while maintaining quality standards. Customers will benefit from intuitive artwork editing and handling tools, real-time pricing, and transparent delivery tracking throughout their printing journey.
