Avant Printing has been mine since day one in 2012. I answer the phone, I review your files, and I stand behind every print, frame, and mounted piece that leaves the studio. When you work with Avant, you are working directly with the person who makes your project.
We don't have a wall of awards. We have long-term clients — many have been ordering since we were called CANTOO.
Same owners, same Richmond location, same standards since January 2012.
Across signage, fine-art printing, framing, and color management.
When the deadline is today, we've delivered same-day signs & prints.
After 48 years in this business, I can still learn things from the pros at Avant. I give Avant a rating of 500 out of 5.
Small but mighty. I've been working with Avant for the last 10 years as a corporate client. They produce high quality work with fast turnarounds and excellent prices. But what I really love about Avant is the customer care. It's a small, but mighty shop, run by the owner, Robyn, and his two long-term employees. They are easy to work with, extremely responsive, appreciative, respectful, and they always get the work done on time and on budget.
We sent over content extremely late and asked for completely unrealistic turnaround times. They managed to get us everything on time and with high quality.
