Grimco Acquires Graphic Solutions Group

Graphic Solutions Group (GSG), a supplier in the sign, digital printing, and apparel decorating marketplace, has announced its acquisition by Grimco, also a supplier in the industry.

“We believe Grimco is the perfect partner to ensure that our customers continue to receive the products and services they’ve come to rely on,” explained GSG CEO Mark Granberry. “The acquisition is a strategic decision for us. Knowing that Grimco has always respected GSG as a competitor, and their commitment to the industries we serve makes them an ideal choice to carry forward our legacy.”

The acquisition of Dallas, Texas-based GSG is expected to close on Jan. 1, 2025. Following the acquisition, GSG will operate as a separate company for nine months to a year.

During that time, customers will see no disruption in service, the company says. GSG customers can continue placing orders through their usual channels — by phone, in person, or online — just as they have always done. Eventually, GSG will be fully integrated into Grimco, aligning both companies’ operations to enhance service and expand product offerings.

“GSG has been one of our top competitors and a company we’ve always admired for their quality service and industry expertise,” said Grimco CEO Keith Pittillo. “Their strong market presence in the apparel decorating sector made this an exciting opportunity for us as we look to grow Grimco’s footprint in that space. Combining our strengths allows us to better serve customers in this growing market.”

According to the companies, GSG’s expertise in the apparel decorating industry, combined with Grimco’s resources, will create significant opportunities for customers. While GSG continues to operate independently in the short term, the eventual integration will provide customers with access to a wider product selection and enhanced support.

This acquisition is said to underscore Grimco’s ongoing commitment to delivering “top-tier products and customer service” and customers of both companies can look forward to a smooth transition backed by the same dedication to service and reliability they’ve come to expect.
