Leading printing and marketing franchisor plans to recruit entrepreneurs and business leaders to develop locations throughout Canadian provinces, including a potential master license opportunity

DENVER – June 15, 2026 – AlphaGraphics, a leading franchisor of signage, printing and marketing solutions, today announced its plans to expand throughout Canada and is actively seeking qualified franchise partners to develop locations across the country.

“Canada is home to a vibrant community of entrepreneurs and small-business owners, making it a natural fit for AlphaGraphics,” said Vice President of Franchise Development for AlphaGraphics Bill McPherson. “We’re eager to bring AlphaGraphics’ full suite of business solutions to Canadian companies while creating new opportunities for entrepreneurs.”

New Path for Expansion

“AlphaGraphics is immediately seeking Master License or Area Franchisee agreements to an experienced entrepreneur interested in playing a key role in the brand’s growth across Canada,” McPherson said.

Similar models have been used successfully by AlphaGraphics’ parent company, Fortidia, in international markets, where local development partners play a key role in expanding and supporting franchise operations across large regions.

“We believe Canada has the potential for more than 110 franchise locations nationally and look forward to partnering with strategic partners by province or for the entire country,” said McPherson.

Key partners will have prior experience owning and building successful enterprises, infrastructure and teams. Franchise experience a plus but not mandatory.

“We are looking for partners with strong business acumen, leadership experience and a passion for success,” McPherson said. “Our master license model offers the opportunity to build a substantial regional business while supporting the success of franchise owners throughout their territory.”

Expanding Creates New Franchisee Opportunities

The expansion initiative comes as AlphaGraphics continues to experience strong growth and demand for its comprehensive suite of business solutions, including digital and offset printing, large-format graphics, direct mail marketing, promotional products, design services and integrated marketing campaigns. From 2024 to 2025, the company increased its franchise development activity by more than 36%.

Currently, the company has locations in the United States, the United Kingdom, Brazil, China, Saudi Arabia and Spain.
