Our History
Our story begins in post war Germany where President
Franz Beisser (second from left) learned the Printing Trade as a
young apprentice. The importance of craftsmanship and attention
to detail was taught day in and day out - becoming as much a part
of him as the color of his eyes.
After immigrating to the US in 1955, Franz spent the next 20 years
perfecting his craft as a student, journeyman, and teacher. In 1977,
he moved to Bedford, Virginia, built a house, and opened B &
B Printing in his basement. There, he and his wife Emily quickly
established a company with a reputation for excellent service and
craftsmanship.
By 1980, the business had outgrown the basement and was moved to
a renovated building in the City of Bedford. Over the next ten years,
honesty, service, and a superior product caused the business to
flourish. In 1990, Alfons Beisser, one of three sons, came home
from college and began his career in the company. By 1995, the other
two sons, Franz and Chris, were on board. With a strong united vision,
the family grew the business from a local 'Mom & Pop' shop into
a strong player in the Virginia commercial printing market.
Each year was marked by new and exciting growth, and by 1999, B
& B Printing had either renovated or added on to the downtown
facility four times and had run out of space.
In the spring of 2001, ground was broken for a sparkling new facility
just outside the city limits. By October of that year, the business
moved to the new location and was finally able to upgrade equipment
and infrastructure. For competitive reasons, the final touch was
changing the company name and corporate identity to Bison Printing,
Inc.
Now, with plenty of room and bright, hardworking employees, Bison
Printing is a financially sound company that is poised to grow as
a leader in digital graphic arts manufacturing.
