Colorep Inc history
Colorep Inc company history timeline
1947: Company founded as Looart Press by Orin and Mariam Loo.
Mariam started the mail-order end of the business in 1950 while trying to find a market for Orin's boxed note paper, called Post-a-Notes.
The stationery and direct mail-order businesses grew and by 1960 the Loos regained complete ownership of the company.
1960: Company moves to first location outside of Loo home.
The structure of the company changed after Orin Loo retired in 1967.
Founded by Glen Taylor in 1975, the Taylor Corporation comprised more than 70 specialty printing and mail-order businesses located in North America, Europe, and Australia.
The Loo family sold Current to American Can in late 1986 for $114 million.
During Current's first full year under Deluxe, 1989, sales increased 18 percent to $187.7 million.
Current was the largest supplier of direct mail checks, with more than 20 check styles, such as the popular Elvis check set introduced in 1993.
1993: Deluxe acquires Paper Direct and combines certain operations with Current.
Deluxe reported decreasing earnings for 1995, prompting the company to reevaluate its operations.
The company invested in Current's Internet site, leading to an increase in customer orders, which accounted for five percent of 1999 sales.
