Superior Print

What Superior Print does

Superior Print is an independent, privately held commercial trade printer headquartered in a single facility at 840 South Indiana Avenue, Sellersburg, Indiana. Founded in 1988, the company sells print production services to other print distributors rather than to end customers, positioning itself as a back-end manufacturing partner for distributors who resell printed materials to their own buyers. Its product mix spans custom business forms (laser cutsheets, snap-out forms, NCR multi-part carbonless forms, unit sets, carbon interleave forms), full-color commercial print (brochures, flyers, posters, business cards, books and pamphlets, postcards, newsletters, team schedules), banking and image documents with MICR encoding (laser checks, counter forms, teller/receipt tickets, CAR/LAR image documents), envelopes, notepads, and a binder of finishing services.

The production stack consists of an offset fleet (Didde web presses in multiple configurations, Itek and Ryobi sheet-fed presses, Halm envelope press) and a digital fleet (Kodak-DI, Kodak Digimaster with MICR, Ricoh Pro 901/901S and Ricoh 550 color, Ricoh 906 B&W), supplemented by a full in-house bindery (Schriber collator, programmable cutters, Baumfolder, perf/score/crease, shrink wrap, business card splitter, paper counter). Order intake runs through a web storefront (online.superiorp.com) that supports branded distributor storefronts with live proofing, multi-division catalog management, and user-level access controls, alongside traditional quote-based sales. The company also offers in-house graphic design for artwork creation and print-ready file preparation.

Revenue mechanics are primarily transaction-based, custom-quoted per order, with no public pricing or subscription tiers disclosed. Customer concentration is skewed toward a horizontal base of U.S. print distributors, with a secondary vertical emphasis on financial/banking institutions for MICR and banking-image work. The company has been operating nationally and is self-described as "nationally recognized" among trade printers, though it remains a single-site operation with 101-250 employees and no disclosed ownership, funding, or M&A activity in the source data.
