Our History
In 1970, America was introduced to optical fibers, video games, bar-coded products, microprocessor-based computers and AlphaGraphics "Printshops of the Future."
After successfully building our proprietary operating systems into a successful and profitable business model, we began franchising our concept in 1979. By the late 80's, AlphaGraphics was aggressively pursuing the global marketplace becoming the first US printing franchise to open internationally with locations in Saudi Arabia, Hong Kong and London. Today, we have over 300 locations in 17 countries.
