Its 10,000-square-foot warehouse stores raw stock and customers in-progress and finished goods. The company was founded in 1950, as Town Printing, a hot metal letter shop in Andover, Mass. By 1996 the company s acquisitions had resulted in three separate facilities, which were consolidated into a 65,000-square-foot facility in North Andover, Mass. During the reorganization the company was renamed Flagship Press.
