Teldon Acquires Design Publishing

Richmond, British Columbia-based Teldon Media Group Inc. Continues Impressive Turnaround With Significant Growth Initiative

Teldon Media Group, the North American leader in brand managed and personalized printed calendars, has announced it will acquire Hayden, Idaho-based By Design Publishing, the North American leader in customized printed magazines, a move that combines the promotion of professionals with compelling consumer content. The acquisition will drive Teldon’s continued growth as a partner for over 140 of the world’s biggest brands, through an expanded product offering that covers the very best personalized printed products.

Founded 49 years ago in the same Richmond, BC community that it currently operates and thrives in today, Teldon is proud to be a leading example of a traditional business that has evolved to be a global leader in its field.

“This is an exciting evolution for Teldon and By Design Publishing. Our customers and partners can expect that both companies will continue to deliver industry-leading products with the same exceptional service customers have come to expect. The combined entity will further accelerate the growth of both companies by marrying an award-winning Teldon culture, best-in-class leadership team, and access to over 140 global brands, with By Design Publishing’s industry-leading personalization interface, and exceptional product portfolio,” said Ryan Benn, President of Teldon Media Group. “By Design Publishing has a strong team who continually drive innovation in the personalized marketing space. We fully expect that our combined enterprise will drive revenue growth and career growth opportunities for both Teldon and By Design Publishing – a core value for both organizations.”

By Design Publishing will continue to operate out of its facility in Hayden, Idaho, and Teldon will continue to operate out of its two facilities in Richmond, BC. 

“At the heart of Teldon’s success is its people, who are passionate about what they do and who live out our values of being real, giving a damn, and pursuing growth,” said Benn. “This philosophy is shared at By Design Publishing and I am excited to lead both organizations as we take our already industry-leading position to vast new levels.”
