Acquisition of one of Atlanta’s largest family-owned print companies positions Wallace Graphics as the region’s most robust print solutions business
Atlanta, Georgia — August 25, 2025 — Wallace Graphics, a family-owned full-service commercial printer based in Atlanta, Georgia, is pleased to announce the acquisition of fellow Atlanta-based Standard Press. The combined print capacity of both companies will make Wallace Graphics one of the largest print organizations in the southeast and, indeed, on the entire East Coast.
With a 90-year legacy of advancing print industry solutions, Standard Press is Atlanta’s oldest independent printer. Today, the company offers integrated print and marketing services with a full suite of technology and solutions. Clients rely on Standard Press for everything from creative design solutions to promotional pieces to stunning Wide Format signage.
While Wallace Graphics and Standard Press each have Atlanta roots, both boast impressive national profiles, with client rosters that include major brand names from coast to coast. Both companies are also SOC 2 certified and have demonstrated strong environmental commitments, as well as implementing impactful efficiencies across their businesses in recent years.
Standard Press was started by Harry and Ruth Shulman in their garage in 1932. Since 1997, it has been led by third-generation president Andy Shulman, who has made the decision to step away from the business and retire. The sale of Standard Press to Wallace Graphics ensures a seamless transition for the clients of Standard Press.
“At Wallace Graphics, we have enormous respect for the Shulman Family and the business that Andy has built at Standard Press,” said Jake Wallace, Vice President, Wallace Graphics, adding “this was an opportunity to take two strong organizations with very similar capabilities and combine them to make one even stronger enterprise.”
Jonathan Wallace, President, Wallace Graphics added “both Wallace Graphics and Standard Press are highly-respected, family-owned companies that have always put their clients at the forefront, and that commitment will continue as we move forward as one customer-centric company.
“The true beneficiaries of this unification will be our clients,” said Shulman. “It has been the honor of a lifetime to lead the company my grandparents founded and my parents nurtured into a business we are all deeply proud of. The decision to transition Standard Press to another family-owned Atlanta printing company ensures the best possible future for our dedicated employees and loyal customers—the very people who have sustained and inspired us since 1932.”
Shulman is committed to working with the Wallace Graphics team to ensure a smooth transition for both customers and employees.
