CCI (PartnerPrinting.com) has been printing everything from business cards, to billboards, to election signs since 1989, but chances are most customers who have walked into a shop to get something printed haven't heard the company's name let alone knew they were doing business in the Inland region.

And that's the way Riverside-resident Mark Sears, president and CEO of CCI, likes it. His company works behind the scenes on a wholesale level, handling printing orders from familiar franchised printing companies, advertising firms and printing brokers, never interacting with individual customers except on a service level.

RIVERSIDE, CA—Colour Concepts, which does business as PartnerPrinting.com, is hoping to make a splash this month when it opens its new 124,000-square-foot headquarters here.

Its new, 124,000-sq.ft. headquarters will feature an eight-color Mitsubishi Diamond 3000TP (tandem perfector) press with dual coaters.
