North American Communications was originally founded as Metro Envelope out of Harlem, New York in 1934. Over the course of the following years, this operation grew steadily. As it became apparent that there was a solid and increasing need for these services[clarification needed], expansion was inevitable. Metro Envelope pushed to Duncansville, Pennsylvania, where it became North American Communications.
With two fully functional manufacturing locations, NAC has become the nation’s largest, bi-national, fully integrated direct mail supplier.
Services
From a company whose beginning is rooted in envelope manufacturing, NAC has grown exponentially. NAC is equipped as a full service mail production operation and able to generate services such as prepress & print, data & analysis, personalization, full color full variable production printing, folding & binding, affixing, inserting, fulfillment services and security. In addition, NAC offers services like commingling, copalletization, print on demand and just-in-time manufacturing designed to help clients save money.[citation needed]
Green initiatives
In 2009, North American Communications became signatories to the United Nations Global Compact. This organization is a forum for international and socially conscientious companies to develop more responsible business practices. Through the UNGC, NAC will produce a yearly Communications on Progress. This annual report will update clients and stakeholders on what NAC has been doing to improve its social and environmental standing.
Community
NAC has always made an effort to give back to the community.[citation needed] In addition to creating countless jobs in each production location, the company looks for opportunities to better support the people and organizations surrounding it. Every year NAC holds a softball marathon to benefit the Easter Seals, a company bowling night to profit the Big Brothers Big Sister of America and a Wallyball Tournament to support the Blair County Respiratory Disease Society.
NAC is also a proud advocate of the Bead For Life organization. This non-profit is designed to eradicate poverty in African societies. Ugandan women use recycled paper to hand roll unique bead jewelry. All profits from the beads go directly back to benefit the women and their communities.
