History

Minuteman Press' beginning is described as humble compared with its world-renowned presence today. Roy Titus, founder of Minuteman Press, had managed a large operation for Parents Magazine. During his dealings with printers every day, Roy experienced too many cases of missed deadlines, poor quality and lack of service. After researching the printing industry for himself, Roy saw that he could fill a unique position in the industry where fast turnaround, high quality and extraordinary customer service always came first. In 1973, Roy Titus and his son Bob opened the first Minuteman Press location in Plainview, N.Y., which was a quick copy center. While the business grew quickly, Roy was concerned about having the same limitations as other quick printers at the time. That is when Roy decided to open a one-stop, full-service Minuteman Press center that could fulfill the complete printing needs of any business by utilizing new print systems that were developed by the 3M Company. Beginning in 1973, Minuteman Press has grown to be a leader in the print industry. Founded by Roy and Bob Titus, the company has grown to over 1000 locations. While expanding its franchise operations around the world, the company found that its principles of quality and service exist in such places as the United Kingdom, South Africa, Canada and Australia.
