Opportunities Expand for Growing Chicagoland Printer to Bring the Red Stars to Life!

CHICAGO – The Chicago Red Stars are proud to announce that Blooming Color has returned as the team’s official print partner for the 2016 National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) season. Headquartered in Lombard, Illinois, the company will continue to provide for all of the club’s printing needs throughout the campaign, including printed merchandise items, promotional materials, and publications such as the Red Stars Game Day Program and media guide. Beyond basic printed materials for distribution to fans, Blooming Color will expand its’ role in providing larger scale items such as vinyl banners and stand-up player cut-outs for display at Toyota Park and at events around Chicagoland.

The NWSL club’s print partner had its start in Naperville, Illinois, in 1989 as a Minuteman Press franchise, which quickly grew to become the largest in the world. In 2006, the world-class commercial printing facility Blooming Color was established as a means of continuing to deliver best-in-class quality services to the company’s clients across a variety of printing disciplines – from conventional to wide format to true color match digital printing.

Over the course of the past twenty-five years, the Blooming Color printing group has expanded and evolved technologically to become a leader in commercial printing in the greater Chicagoland area with national and global clients. The company continues to provide quality small-scale printing as well as high-volume, high-end commercial services – and everything in between.

“It is our pleasure to partner again with the Chicago Red Stars for the upcoming 2016 season. We are thrilled about the team’s success and their expansion into Toyota Park, just as we are about our company’s growth and the acquisition of new technologies and equipment,” said Blooming Color President Brian Scott. “This is an exciting time for both of our organizations, and we are proud to support the Red Stars in their continued growth.”

“In the first year of our partnership, we were impressed with the quality of the printed products delivered by Blooming Color to put in our fans’ hands,” explained Scott Kosak, Red Stars Vice President of Sales & Marketing. “As the team settles into Toyota Park for 2016, we’re even more excited in how we’re expanding our use of Blooming Color’s evolving capabilities with larger format items create even more impactful images in the minds of our fans at games and at events around the area.”
