Buy a Kwik Kopy Franchise

Kwik Kopy is a printing and marketing services franchise founded in Houston, Texas in 1967, with franchising beginning in 1969. The brand is owned by Fortusis, LLC, based in West Jordan, Utah, which acquired the Kwik Kopy system from ICED in 2017. Fortusis also manages Franklin’s Printing and The Ink Well as part of its US print franchise portfolio.

Centers function as full-service print and marketing hubs for business clients, covering printing and copying, graphic design, large-format graphics, finishing and bindery, mailing services, and promotional products. The model combines in-house digital equipment with wholesale vendor relationships to deliver a broad service range without the overhead of a full commercial print operation.

The brand serves small-to-medium businesses, professional offices, and enterprise accounts, handling both repeat commercial work and individual projects. Franchisees operate from physical retail storefronts with an online ordering platform for established clients. Pack-and-ship services extend the center’s reach beyond print, adding a complementary revenue stream that serves the same business customer base.

Why buy a Kwik Kopy Franchise?

Deciding to buy a Kwik Kopy franchise means entering a market where local businesses need printing and marketing materials on a consistent basis: signage, branded collateral, direct mail, and promotional products. With a franchise system operating since 1967, the brand carries recognition in its territories that an independent print shop would take years to establish. Fortusis’s multi-brand network gives franchisees access to shared operational systems and franchisor-level support.

Franchisees receive preferred pricing with FedEx, UPS, and DHL, supporting pack-and-ship revenue alongside core printing services. The model’s combination of in-house equipment and wholesale vendor access gives operators the flexibility to cover a wide project range without the capital requirements of a fully equipped commercial print facility. The B2B customer base also supports recurring revenue from established accounts.

Kwik Kopy – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    Kwik Kopy provides an intensive four-week initial training program at its training facility, covering operations, business planning, financial analysis, and target marketing through 64 hours of classroom instruction and 64 hours of on-the-job training. Ongoing support includes operational guidance, marketing assistance, and preferred pricing arrangements with FedEx, UPS, and DHL. Resale buyers should confirm with Fortusis what onboarding and system access transfers when a unit changes hands.

  2. Ideal Owner

    Kwik Kopy suits operators with strong B2B sales skills and comfort managing client relationships across a range of local business accounts. Core responsibilities include overseeing production staff, coordinating with vendors, and maintaining the commercial relationships that drive repeat revenue. Prior experience in printing or business services is useful but not required; backgrounds in sales, account management, or professional services translate well. The model fits community-facing operators comfortable both in front of clients and managing center operations.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    Kwik Kopy does not hold a major US franchise ranking in its current period under Fortusis ownership, though the brand and its sister brands have been featured in the Printing News Annual Print Franchise Review. With more than 55 years of operating history, the brand's recognition rests on its longevity, established client relationships within individual territories, and its standing as a trusted resource for business printing and marketing. For resale buyers, the specific unit's local reputation and client retention history are the primary credibility signals to review.

  4. Industry / Market

    The US commercial printing market was valued at approximately $129 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach $169 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 3.6% (Grand View Research). Demand is driven by business marketing spend, growth in print-on-demand services, and strong appetite for signage and large-format materials, with the SME segment among the fastest growing. Digital channels have shifted some traditional print volume online, making service breadth and client retention key factors for buyers evaluating any specific franchise territory.
