What Mittera Group does

Mittera Group, Inc. is a privately held, U.S.-domiciled commercial printing and integrated marketing services company headquartered in Des Moines, Iowa. Founded in 1974 as a single commercial printer in Newton, Iowa, the company has expanded through organic growth and acquisitions (including EarthColor in 2017, Henry Wurst, Inc. in 2019, and Ambassador Press in 2020) into a national platform operating 20+ manufacturing and production facilities across 13 states, with corporate offices, a Creative + Tech Studios location in Des Moines, and supplier-diversity-certified locations.

The company sells four integrated service lines under one roof: Print Services (a national manufacturing platform for short-run market-specific versions through high-volume mailings and complex print solutions), Creative & Marketing Services (in-house strategists, photographers, videographers, designers, marketers and writers supported by a 35,000 sq. ft. studio with a 1,600 sq. ft. infinity wall, plus VR360 video and styling services), Technology Solutions (light-touch, automated, efficiency-driven workflow configuration), and Data Services (combining client data with demographic, behavioral, and statistical-model-based customer targeting). Supporting capabilities include secure FTP-based file transfer, national fulfillment and distribution logistics, and certified supplier-diversity partnerships (HighRoad Press, Nicholas Earth Printing, EarthSpectrum).

Mittera serves enterprise and mid-market customers across 15+ industry verticals — Higher Education, Finance Services, Healthcare, Political, Quick-Service Restaurants, Automotive & Travel, Telecom, Advertising & Agencies, Entertainment & Gaming, Manufacturing, Media & Publishing, Technology, Non-Profit, Retail, Pharma, and Government — through a direct enterprise field-sales motion. Revenue is generated from one-time print engagements, professional services for creative and technology work, and data-monetization engagements. The company does not publicly disclose pricing, revenue figures, funding rounds, or management bios; headcount is reported in the 1,001–5,000 range. Ownership is private with no disclosed parent company, venture capital backing, or equity holders.
