Custom Printing in Charlotte, NC

Bank towers and corporate conferences

Uptown Charlotte is one of the country's major banking centers, and its towers hold financial firms, law offices, consultancies and the regional headquarters of many companies. These organizations rarely print for a storefront, but they do run client conferences, analyst days, town halls and recruiting events that need a polished look: a podium wrap and media wall for the stage, counter wraps for registration, retractable banner stands at each breakout door and floor graphics that guide guests through a hotel ballroom. Trade shows at the uptown convention center bring exhibitors from across the Carolinas, many of whom also show in Raleigh. Send the venue's stage or booth dimensions and a printing specialist replies with a proof of every piece.

Race weeks and fall festival season

Stock car racing is a regional industry, with race shops and parts suppliers clustered in Concord and Mooresville and two big race weeks each year that fill hospitality tents and fan zones. Teams and sponsors order canopy tents, table covers, feather flags and car magnets for support vehicles, along with mesh banners for the fencing around hospitality areas. The fall calendar adds a county fair, arts festivals in the city's older neighborhoods, college football Saturdays and holiday markets, where vendors want a canopy tent with a printed top and a vinyl banner with the price list. For indoor expos, a tension fabric display and retractable banner stand pack into one trip from the car.

Churches, subdivisions and summer humidity

Charlotte has a large number of churches and faith-based nonprofits, and they are steady print buyers: vinyl banners for Easter and Christmas services, yard signs for vacation Bible school and food drives, event directional signs for parking on Sunday and feather flags at the entrance. The suburbs keep growing through Huntersville, Gastonia and across the state line in Rock Hill, so builders and agents order yard signs for model homes and aluminum directional signs for weekend open houses. Summers are hot and humid with afternoon storms, which is why hemmed, grommeted banners with a little slack and weighted bases for sidewalk signs are the standard advice, and laminated aluminum for anything that stays up for a year.
