What Apollo Printing & Graphics does

Apollo Printing & Graphics (legal entity: Apollo Printing & Graphics And S&S Printers) is a privately held commercial printing company founded in 1994 and headquartered at 2100 W. Lincoln Avenue in Anaheim, California. The company operates a single full-service printshop serving Orange County and Los Angeles County, with nationwide shipping via UPS, FedEx, and USPS. It runs both offset and digital four-color printing equipment, large-format digital printers, and finishing/bindery machinery (cutting, die-cutting, foiling, embossing, multiple binding methods) under one roof, supplemented by in-house graphic design services.

The product portfolio spans standard business printing (business cards, letterhead, envelopes, stationery), marketing materials (flyers, brochures, postcards, newsletters, posters), event printing (invitations, programs, tickets, wedding stationery), large-format signage (banners, yard signs, trade show displays), promotional products, and specialized regulated printing including California AB-149 compliant controlled-substance prescription pads for medical, dental, and veterinary providers. Distinctive offerings include a union-printer designation for political campaigns, password-protected custom storefronts for recurring business accounts, variable data printing, direct mail/EDDM services, and cross-media marketing using personalized URLs.

The company monetizes primarily through one-time transactional purchases priced per unit (e.g., business cards at $35 per 100 units, letterhead at $130-$415, prescription pads with a $45 setup fee plus unit costs), supplemented by subscription-style recurring revenue from custom storefront accounts and transactional fees from mailing services. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer through the Anaheim retail location, a full e-commerce website with quote requests and file upload, inside sales via phone and toll-free lines, and event-driven sales targeting political campaign timelines. Customer base is diversified across general SMBs, political campaigns, healthcare providers, real estate, weddings/events, and trade show exhibitors, with no disclosed enterprise anchors or named customer logos.
