The People Behind
Your Print.
A husband-and-wife team turned full-service print shop. We started small, stayed honest, and built something that lasts — just like the apparel we make.
From A Home
In The Country
Pacific North Press began as a husband-and-wife operation, printing out of our home in the country with a simple goal: make good things with skill, do business with our customers the way we want business done with us, help businesses grow with our products, and create things that last.
Not long after opening, we moved into central Portland so we could grow, invest in better equipment, and better serve our customers. What began as a small home-based shop has grown into a full-service apparel and decoration operation, while still holding onto the values we started with.
Our Values
These aren't buzzwords on a wall. They're the principles we built this company on and measure every decision against.
Quality Over Volume
We believe printed apparel is more than disposable fast fashion. It's something people should keep, wear, and remember. A favorite shirt. A keepsake from a moment that mattered. That's why it truly matters who you trust to print your apparel.
Honest Partnership
We take a collaborative approach to every order, from artwork and garment selection to production and delivery. We aren't aiming to be the biggest shop — we aim to be the one people trust, return to, and recommend.
Always Evolving
We stay curious, hands-on, and selective about the innovations we adopt, focusing on those that improve quality, consistency, and longevity. Our abilities have been hardened by the realities of being a small business competing against much larger companies.
Built Through
Millions Of Prints
Our experience has been built through printing and embroidering millions of garments, and our abilities have been hardened by the realities of being a small business competing against much larger companies. That combination has shaped how we work: thoughtful, efficient, detail-driven, and deeply invested in doing things the right way.
We even spent several years working with a nationwide screen print product distributor and manufacturer to teach several hundred students the basics of commercial screen printing. That kind of deep, hands-on knowledge is behind every job we produce.
