Our Story
Northside Print & ShipIt was established in 2020. We found the traditional shipping and printing shops completely inconvenient and unrelatable.
The post office was considered unreliable and our neighborhood was always under attack from porch pirates. We wanted to create a safe place for customers to ship and receive their mail.
However, we acknolwedged a 3rd party shipping store is not the most solid business model. We decided to research what business services Cincinnati was lacking so we could fill the gap and we arrived at The Print Shop.
There is a lack of quality printers in our city and most online retailers charge a fortune unless you order in bulk. We were determined to design a better product.
Our goal was to launch a business providing high quality print products and shipping services to our neighborhood and eventually expand beyond our zip code.
So during a once in a lifetime pandemic we opened our shop ready to receive all of your Amazon returns, belated wedding invitations, and business card orders.
In 2022, we launched our online store and are excited to see where this new avenue will take us!
