C & R Printing

C&R Marketing Services has a rich history that spans over 25 years of professional marketing services. Our story began in the basement of a Bristol, CT home, where Owner Chris Bottino, at the tender age of 12, started C&R Printing with the help of his father. What began as a hobby driven by perseverance, commitment, and business skills quickly grew into a thriving business that outgrew the family home.

By the time Chris graduated from high school, C&R had moved into the 3rd floor of the historic Sessions Clock Building, where he hired his first employee to oversee operations while he focused part-time on his studies at UCONN. Chris graduated with a mechanical engineering degree and a minor in material science, but his passion for the printing business led him back to it, and over the past 25 years, it has grown into one of the region's leading marketing services providers.
