Independents are not bound by the policies, product lines or production limitations of any single source of supply. By working with a wide array of manufacturers and business partners, they can deliver what you are looking for at a low cost. And, they can reduce freight costs by picking a manufacturer near your delivery site. Independent distributors sell the majority of products in the marketplace today. A recent research study produced by the Document Management Industries Association showed that distributors control 54 percent of the market for forms, labels, checks, direct mail and other business printing.
