MP Repro

What MP Repro does

MP Repro (legal name MP Reproductions Inc.) is a family-owned commercial printing company founded in 1964 in Montreal, Quebec, and currently led by second-generation owners Carmela Martinez (CEO) and Vincenza Martinez (Partner). The company operates from a 35,000 square foot production facility in Saint-Laurent, a downtown Montreal branch on Côte du Beaver Hall, and a fleet of 12 delivery vehicles serving the greater Montreal metropolitan area, with a staff of approximately 60 professionals.

Its service offering spans digital and offset printing, large-format UV and latex printing, blueprint and plan reproduction, industrial identification (notably the Metalphoto process for anodized-aluminum labels), 3D printing (Polyjet, ABS, foam), custom packaging, plan scanning and digitization, print-on-demand services, and signage installation. The underlying technology stack combines multiple best-in-class presses (SwissQprint, Canon Colorado M5W, HP PageWide XL8000, Iridesse) with proprietary digital platforms, including the Efolio cloud-based web-to-print portal for enterprise multi-user ordering and the Inktronic cloud-based plan annotation system, which integrates with Bluebeam Revu for AEC collaboration. MP Repro's primary customer base is the Quebec Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) sector, with additional exposure to industrial and institutional buyers, events and exhibitions, design and interior decoration (via the Muropix Deco division), and small publishers served through print-on-demand.

The business model is project-based and transactional, with most services priced via custom quote rather than published rate cards. Revenue is generated from one-time commercial printing jobs, enterprise portal subscriptions (Efolio), delivery and installation services, equipment and supplies retail, and direct-to-consumer e-commerce (the annual Kollectif architectural calendar and Muropix Deco products). Distribution is omnichannel and primarily local: walk-in counters, online quote requests, the Efolio enterprise portal, the boutique.mprepro.com storefront, and the owned delivery fleet. The company is privately held, has no disclosed external funding, and has reinvested continuously over six decades in equipment, facilities, and digital tooling.
