When you work in a segment of the printing industry that is “one document away from a major disaster” every single day, it’s imperative that quality and accuracy remain a primary focus. Chris Kropac Jr., president of PCI Group based in Fort Mill, South Carolina, points to this as a driving factor behind the transactional mail printing company’s dedication to a “culture of quality” and, ultimately, to its continued growth. Even though PCI Group was named a “2024 Innovator of the Year,” Kropac says innovation in the transactional printing space “sounds like an oxymoron.” And yet, through very intentional and “innovative” practices, PCI Group has been able to set itself apart from competitors by growing its volume by five times and its revenue by seven times in the past 17 years.
