About Minuteman Press

Founded in 1973 and franchising since 1975, Minuteman Press International has grown into the largest printing and marketing services franchise in North America, operating over 1,000 locations globally. Known for its wide-ranging print, branding, and mailing offerings, the chain earns consistent top rankings, including #66 on Entrepreneur’s 2025 Franchise 500 and #1 in its category.

What They Offer

  • Full-service print and marketing centers that handle digital printing, graphic design, signage, mailing services, custom promotional items, and finishing—serving both businesses and consumers.
  • Multiple recurring revenue streams, with reliable B2B clients and steady consumer demand.
  • Capped royalty structure and timeless weekday business hours, ideal for franchisees seeking balance.

The Franchise Offering

  • Home-based service centers: compact office/retail space, no warehouse needed. Absentee management is permitted if a trained manager is onsite.
  • Nationwide footprint with global reach across the U.S., Canada, U.K., Australia, and South Africa.
  • Robust backing and local assistance: centralized HQ provides national marketing, software (FLEX), and equipment support; field reps provide ~60 hours of setup help.

  • Managerial-minded candidates ready to supervise staff, build client relationships, and utilize marketing tools.
