Growth through inkjet Marquis has recently invested heavily in advanced inkjet technology at its Montmagny facility, including the HP PageWide Advantage 2200, signaling a strategic shift toward high-volume, fast-turnaround color book production and coated/uncoated papers. This presents an opportunity to target publishers seeking shorter lead times, customized formats, or mixed-media editions.
Expanded capacity With three production plants in Montmagny, Louiseville, and Toronto plus a dedicated logistics center, Marquis can offer scalable production and logistics solutions across North America and Europe. This capacity can be positioned to publishers needing regionalized print runs, just‑in‑time fulfillment, or cross‑border distribution optimization.
Part of Lakeside As a division of Lakeside Book Company since 2023, Marquis benefits from being part of a larger printing and distribution ecosystem. This affiliation can be leveraged to pitch integrated services, bundled offerings, and broader reach for customers seeking single‑vendor simplicity for printing, warehousing, and logistics.
Yearbooks and education focus Marquis operates a division specializing in yearbooks and school agendas (Le Laurentien), indicating a track record and capabilities in education publishing. This opens sales opportunities with school districts, universities, and education content providers requiring recurring, high-volume print runs with seasonal demand planning.
Digital and web enablement A tech stack featuring HubSpot Analytics, iCIMS, WordPress, Google Cloud, and Shopify suggests Marquis maintains modern marketing, recruiting, and e-commerce capabilities. This enables data-driven outreach, smooth onboarding for new clients, and potential for digital storefronts or self-serve print solutions tailored to mid-market publishers.
