The Printing Industry Exchange (PIE) staff are experienced individuals within the printing industry that are dedicated to helping and maintaining a high standard of ethics in this business. We are a privately owned company with principals in the business having a combined total of 103 years experience in the printing industry.

PIE's staff is here to help the print buyer find competitive pricing and the right printer to do their job, and also to help the printing companies increase their revenues by providing numerous leads they can quote on and potentially get new business.

This is a free service to the print buyer. All you do is find the appropriate bid request form, fill it out, and it is emailed out to the printing companies who do that type of printing work. The printers best qualified to do your job, will email you pricing and if you decide to print your job through one of these print vendors, you contact them directly.

We have kept the PIE system simple -- we get a monthly fee from the commercial printers who belong to our service. Once the bid request is submitted, all interactions are between the print buyers and the printers.

We are here to help, you can contact us by email at info@printindustry.com.

I just read an article about a commercial printing firm (a printing broker, actually) that specializes in photo books and that has just expanded into digital yearbooks. It’s called Picaboo, and I just read about it in an article by John Lippman entitled “Picaboo, I See a New … Yearbook.” (Valley News, September 20, 2015). This Redwood City, California, vendor, as quoted in the article, notes: (more…)

Custom Printing: What Is an Infographic?

Tuesday, January 12th, 2016
