Location, location, location is the well-known bromide describing the three most important factors in determining real estate value. For BOPI, it aptly describes how this dynamic commercial print and packaging company has positioned itself to become a regional force in the industry.
While technology has enabled businesses like BOPI to expand its geography without a physical presence, it has yet to replace the benefits of having community, personal relationship and ease of access. Yes, BOPI can be there online, having harnessed the horsepower of electronic communication tools to make the world its marketplace. But, better yet, BOPI can be on your doorstep, providing the Midwest with its high-level suite of services to meet every need from three business hubs.
Founded in 1947 in the Central Illinois community of Bloomington, BOPI has utilized strategic acquisitions to expand its personally accessible marketplace throughout Illinois and to the adjoining states of Missouri, Kentucky, Indiana, and Iowa. Print continues to prove its value in today’s media mix by delivering targeted, impactful messaging, and BOPI has aggressively positioned itself to be a reliable provider of marketing collateral, direct mail, and paperboard packaging to get the job done.
After first bringing another Bloomington-based printer into the fold in 2010, BOPI added the former JK Creative Printing and Mailing in Quincy, IL, in 2018. This industrialized Mississippi River community is a driver of commerce in southwestern Illinois, and the location enables BOPI representatives to assist clients throughout that region, eastern and central Missouri, and southeastern Iowa.
Another opportunity in a river town presented itself in November 2025. This time, it was an established firm in Owensboro KY along the Ohio River, Greenwell Chisholm Printing. Now operating as a division of BOPI, Greenwell Chisholm’s influence spreads throughout northern and western Kentucky, southern Indiana, and into Ohio.
Already well-served by the convergence of three Interstate highways, BOPI’s home in Central Illinois today is buoyed by its presence in Quincy and Owensboro to bring commercial print and packaging to your front door.
