What Gorilla Printing NYC does

Gorilla Printing NYC is a privately held large format printing company headquartered in Brooklyn, NY, founded in 2002 and operated as a brand of Printing Digital USA Inc. The company operates a single comprehensive print platform spanning banners (retractable, fabric, X, tension fabric, step-and-repeat), signs (foamcore, coroplast, construction fence, demolition, safety, sidewalk shed, billboard vinyl), advertising flags (feather, pole, spirit, teardrop), posters (same-day, mounted, movie, scientific, wheatpaste, backlit), vehicle wraps and decals (3M Cast matte, laminated, food cart, adhesive vinyl, window perf, window clings, floor graphics, reflective vinyl), and canvas prints (gallery wrap, floating frame), alongside specialty services including large-scale 3D printing, mobile billboards, blueprints, lenticular, packaging, giclée fine art, and graphic design. The underlying technology stack combines state-of-the-art digital and offset printing presses, ultra-wide format printers, large-scale 3D printing rigs, dye sublimation systems, and UV printers capable of 1000dpi outdoor printing on substrates up to 8'x150'. Core technical differentiators include a 3-hour same-day turnaround, 100,000-poster-per-campaign production capacity, 3M Cast vinyl vehicle wraps with air-release channels, and eco-friendly soy-ink/alcohol-free press operations.

Gorilla Printing operates a multi-channel go-to-market model. Transactional unit-priced ecommerce (gorillaprinting.com) serves SMBs and individuals with standardized SKUs priced from $15.60 per ft² (Adhesive Window Perf) to $470 per unit (Step and Repeat Backdrop), with same-day, next-business-day, and 3-4 business day turnaround options. An inside-sales motion (Custom Quote form, +1-888-494-6745 phone line) handles project-based work — 3D printing, vehicle wraps, custom substrates, lenticular, blueprints. A sales-led motion targets advertising agencies, media buyers, and brand marketers with turn-key OOH services combining printing, media buying, wheatpasting street-team installation with guaranteed landowner placement agreements, mobile billboards, brand ambassadors, exhibition and event production, sponsorship activation, and stadium/arena placements. Nationwide UPS shipping extends the Brooklyn production facility to all 50 US states, and a 15-city US service network (NYC, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Indianapolis, Las Vegas, LA, Miami, Phoenix, San Diego, SF, San Jose, Seattle) supports multi-market campaign rollouts.

Revenue is generated through three streams: online unit-priced product sales (hardware-style), managed OOH campaign and professional services billed per project, and custom-quote specialty printing. The customer base spans advertising agencies and media buyers (primary), event and trade show organizers (primary), NYC construction sites requiring DOB/HBD-compliant signage, vehicle owners and fleet operators, and individual SMB buyers. The company reports 1,500+ cumulative customers, 2,432 customer reviews averaging 4.8/5, and a logo wall of recognizable enterprise brands including WeWork, Uber, Twitter, Nasdaq, NBC, Netflix, Mastercard, Coca-Cola, Adidas, AT&T, ESPN, MTV, Vice, Nivea, Moschino, and Desigual. Parent Printing Digital USA Inc. owns the registered trademarks 'Wheatpasting' and 'Wheatpaste Posters.'
