What NPN360 does

NPN360 is a privately held, US-based marketing execution firm founded in 1985 and headquartered in Bannockburn, Illinois. It operates as a managed services provider for global enterprise brands, delivering brand asset management, creative production, packaging, printing, signage, retail displays, branded merchandise, direct mail, logistics, warehousing and fulfillment, and omnichannel campaign execution. The company sells to enterprise clients such as Whirlpool, Portillo's, Sally Beauty, Claire's, Delta Dental, Welly, and Cowboy Chicken through a dedicated field sales organization and a modular "Hub & Spoke" service architecture that lets clients select from 12 spokes tied to a centralized managed services hub.

The underlying technology is a unified marketing execution platform that combines brand and digital asset management, custom-branded e-commerce storefronts (API-ready for ERP, CRM, and 3PL integrations), automated production and fulfillment workflow, and a global warehouse and 3PL network enabling near one-day-away delivery. Color-critical work is run through G7-certified workflows. The platform is described as tech-enabled rather than AI-native, with no disclosed AI/ML capabilities, patents, or research activity.

Revenue is generated through a mix of managed services contracts (multi-year, custom-priced per engagement), recurring e-commerce platform fees, and transaction-based production and fulfillment charges. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is tailored per engagement. The company employs 51-100 people, has no disclosed investors or parent, and is led by CEO Artie Collins (nearly a decade) and President Jeff Greenbury (11 years), with CFO Tom Vorndran joining in July 2026 to professionalize finance operations.
