This is where the Story Continues...

A Growing Company

Our History

---

Kirkwood began in 1973 with a single press, printing technical manuals for Boston-area technology companies.
 
Since 2004, under the current ownership, the company has grown from a commercial printer to a full-service integrated communications provider.  We’ve seen our revenue climb from $8.5 million to the current level of $75 million, which is rare—perhaps even unheard of—in the printing industry.

To maximize collaboration among our divisions, we’ve invested in our facilities, expanding our Wilmington headquarters to over 80,000 square feet.
 
We’re a company on the move, but we’ve never lost sight of the quality and service that define us.  Kirkwood continues to be recognized by industry leaders like Sappi Paper, and our client-focused culture touches each and every part of the business. Kirkwood’s customer commitment is one thing that will never change—it makes us proud of our history, and confident in our future.

Our story has been one of explosive growth in a contracting industry. For the tenth year in a row, Kirkwood has been recognized as one of The TOP PRINTING companies in North America by Printing Impressions Magazine. Kirkwood is constantly renewing its commitment to environmental stewardship. We believe sustainable practices are non-negotiable, and we’ve been a Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) printer since 2008. FSC Certified (Forest Stewardship Certified), G7 Certified Master Printer.
