A Case Study: Bakken Books
Bakken Books is a small, independent publishing company that focuses on the creation of wholesome books.
The Opportunity
Bakken Books provides kids with wholesome chapter books that teach character lessons, core virtues, and strong moral values. They strive to provide content that parents trust and kids love!
The Solution
Bakken Books has a large number of books in print, including five complete book series.
With a growing list of authors and titles, Bakken Books was in pursuit of a better solution for warehousing and order fulfillment.
Color House Graphics knew the great value that they could offer to Bakken Books by combining services with their sister company, JPL Books, located just a short distance from CHG’s headquarters.
Working hand-in-hand with JPL Books, CHG helped Bakken Books save money and time in manufacturing and distribution.
Today, CHG proudly prints, and ships thousands of books annually for Bakken Books.
“Keeping all of our publishing needs in one place has been super convenient!”

“I highly recommend CHG! They take accountability when necessary and take good care of their customers. Pricing is very competitive and the quoting process is quick.”
