Dow Jones Description

Champion Industries was founded with the premise that performance equates to results. Through the years, the foundations for continued performance and the subsequent results have been developed through strong leadership, a desire for achievement and a commitment to responsibility. The Company and its predecessors have been headquartered in Huntington, West Virginia since 1922. In 1964, a corporation formed by Mr. Marshall T. Reynolds and Mr. John Harrah, the Harrah & Reynolds Corporation, purchased Chapman Printing Company from Mr. John Chapman. That year marked the beginning of Champion Industries as it exists today. From a small, community based printing company an aggressive, powerful and responsible organization has grown. Acquisition has played an important role in the history of the Company. The ability to better serve our customer base has been enhanced by the synergies brought to the forefront by the personnel operations and direction of additional operations. Aggressive growth has occurred throughout the last four decades enabling the Company to compete on a global level and provide the customer with a total solution in color printing, office supplies, promotional products and office furniture. Champion's commitment to be a "single source" supplier to the marketplace will continue to be our driving force as we move forward. ...
