Cameron Advertising Displays possesses both a 12,000 square foot special facility for advanced digital printing as well as a 30,000 square foot production facility for screen process. With a staff of only approximately 60 people, it is still considered a small business though its service area is quite vast. The clientele that it serves encompasses three demographics: trade, agency and also end users.

As a result of this acquisition, the customers of Cameron Advertising Displays will see the following outcomes. The expertise and technology to solve their problems, a national channel and sales partner who supports small to large customers, and a wider selection of software solutions and digital and screen hardware that all come from one vendor.
