The Printin’ Press, Inc. and Robert Bolin are pleased to announce the sale of the company to Westmoreland Printers, Inc, effective July 1, 2021.
Wes Westmoreland said of the acquisition, “I was born in Kings Mountain, my grandfather, Jim Hambright, graduated from Kings Mountain High School. I am most pleased to have a footprint in the city.” He continued, “Kings Mountain is a growing and vital city in the county, and we fully intend to maintain a presence in town to continue to serve individuals and businesses in the area.”
“I never really considered selling the business to anyone other than Westmoreland,” Bolin stated. “They have a well-established reputation for quality and customer service. My primary goal was to ensure that the customers the Printin’ Press has served for over 40 years would be well served in the future.”
Though his father was a local veterinarian, Westmoreland followed the family legacy of printing, the fifth generation of the family to do so since JF Westmoreland opened a printing company in Thomasville, NC in 1887. Westmoreland Printers was founded in 1999 and is headquartered on East Dixon Boulevard in Shelby.
Westmoreland Printers is the most awarded printing company in the region, having received well over 100 gold, silver, and bronze awards from the Printing Industries of the Carolinas and the International Association of Printing House Craftsmen for quality design and production of both traditional offset as well as digital print. Awarded work includes a wide range of products that varies from business cards to books.
The Kings Mountain office will remain in the same complex that has housed the Printin’ Press at 714 N. Cleveland Ave, and the phone number will remain the same. Hours of operation are from 9 AM until 4 PM, Monday through Thursday, and Friday from 9 AM until 1 PM. More information is available online at WestmorelandPrinters.com.
