Design Print

What Design Print does

Design Print Inc. is a privately held, single-location printing and digital services company headquartered at 731 Saginaw Street, Scranton, Pennsylvania. Founded circa 2015 and operating under the 'Design Print' trade name, the company serves customers in the northeastern Pennsylvania region across diverse SMB categories — restaurants, bowling centers, retailers, service trades, non-profits, and a small number of enterprise accounts. The integrated service portfolio spans graphic design, digital and offset printing, direct mail with variable data personalization, large format printing, custom packaging, and full-service marketing (brand identity, social media, copywriting, photography, advertising). A subsidiary brand, Smart Web Design & eCommerce (smartwebdesigns.us), extends the offering into website design, front-end/back-end development, eCommerce buildouts, and SEO.

The business model is service-based and project-driven. Revenue is generated through one-time printing orders and professional services engagements (graphic design, marketing strategy, web development, direct mail campaigns), with quote-based, non-publicly-disclosed pricing (pricing_details.publicly_disclosed: false). GTM is direct-to-consumer, acquired through referrals, local marketing, the company website, Facebook, and Google+ presence. Customer logos include regional names such as Coopers Collection, Banktech, Van Fleets Grove, South Side Bowl, NEPA Sealcoating, Ronald McDonald House NEPA, Pittston Memorial Library, Energy Technologies, and Valley Bowling Lanes, among others. No public revenue, headcount, funding, M&A, or ownership disclosures are available beyond confirmation that the entity is a Pennsylvania corporation with no parent company and no disclosed investors.
