State and Federal Poster

What State and Federal Poster does

State and Federal Poster, Inc. is a privately-held US e-commerce company that sells labor law compliance posters to employers across North America. Founded around 2010 and headquartered in Walnut, California, the company operates a self-serve Shopify storefront through which customers select jurisdiction-specific posters covering all 50 US states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and ten Canadian provinces and territories. The product portfolio spans physical laminated posters (state-only, federal-only, and state-and-federal combination), digital/electronic posters for remote workers, city-specific municipal compliance posters, Canadian employment standards posters, and adjacent workplace safety products covering OSHA, healthcare, restaurant, and first aid categories. Pricing ranges from approximately $13.99 for a basic federal poster to $62.94 for a full state-plus-federal combo, with digital versions priced at $20.99-$22.99.

The company's primary technology is its Shopify-based e-commerce platform, which supports state-specific landing pages, digital product delivery, and corporate multi-location dropship functionality. There is no API, no proprietary software beyond standard Shopify capabilities, and no AI-driven features. The Compliance Shield Plan is a bundled annual subscription that automatically replaces posters when labor laws change, providing the only recurring-revenue component in an otherwise transactional catalog. Marketing channels are SEO-driven organic search, email newsletter, and promotional coupon codes (e.g., LABOR for 5% off); there is no evidence of paid advertising, content marketing investment, or sales-led enterprise motion beyond inside-sales phone support.

The customer base is concentrated in small and mid-sized businesses across diverse industries (trades, language services, general SMBs), with secondary focus on multi-location enterprises via volume discounts and on remote-workforce employers via digital format. The company is founder/management-controlled with no disclosed external investors, no parent organization, no subsidiaries, and no M&A or funding activity. Its differentiation rests on a comprehensive jurisdictional content library, 15 years of domain focus, an annual product refresh cadence tied to regulatory changes, and a 100% compliance guarantee.
