Our History

Park Press is a company built on history. Founded in 1934, the historic building that is home to Park Press Printers was erected in 1836 as a church that was converted to a general store and later became the Saugus Center Post Office. From its humble early beginnings as a letterpress shop in the basement of a home on Park street (hence our name), Park Press Printers progressed and expanded to include direct mail and a full range of commercial print services to meet all printing and marketing needs. Today, we are a fully licensed and fully operational Union Printing and Direct Mail Company located just outside Boston in the Saugus, Massachusetts.

Originally from an engineering background, his knowledge of all avenues of printing and his ability to think outside the box has made him a leader in the print industry, giving you the most quality and versatile services on the market today. Through the years, Gabe has handpicked an ensemble of knowledgeable and flexible employees. By working one on one with each of them, exchanging valuable ideas and passing wisdom down truly has structured the company in a unique way.

Through swift and thorough execution, he keeps the wheels turning at a steady pace here, and seems to always have the right answer to pretty much any tech question you could have.

Tommy Sfeir

Lead Pressman tom@parkpressprinters.com
One of our most senior team members Tommy’s presses are the busiest in the building. Starting as the 1 and 2 color Pressman and working his way up to Lead Pressman, there isn’t an offset job that Tommy doesn’t see. Working on presses like the Ryobi and Heidelburg for 23 years, Tommy is a true expert in his craft. Tommy helps bring these jobs to life by meticulously matching exact Pantone ink colors, making small adjustments on the press, and in the end, crafting beautiful offset print work on an array of quality paper stocks. His strong work ethic and attention to detail are one of the many reasons the prints coming out of Park Press are so brilliant. The character of a good offset print heavily depends on the pressman that’s printing it, and Tommy consistently shines while turning out Park Press’ signature forte of press work. He’s not all business, however, off the press he’ll be laughing and joking around with everyone at the office, providing some much-needed flavor to the sometimes hectic print shop schedule. His interests include spending time with his family, barbecuing and attending Lebanese-American functions.
