About Us

FOCUSales (pronounced Focus Sales) was formed in 2004 in response to the ever-changing landscape of printing technologies, manufacturers’ evolving needs, and individual customer requirements. We are a single source that offers a wide array of print solutions to satisfy a seemingly infinite number of custom applications. From cosmetics to food to durable goods and automotive under-the-hood, we’ve created a label, designed a folding carton, or printed a shrink sleeve for what seems like almost everything.
Stephen Riddle, Founder
I am a North Carolina Tar Heel by birth and by education! My wife and I live in Raleigh, NC and have four daughters, two sons-in-law, two granddaughters, and a 6-year-old black lab. When not with family I enjoy exploring breweries and wineries, playing golf with friends, and watching sports—especially the Tar Heels and the Carolina Hurricanes.
Beginning in the late 1980’s in the business forms industry, my experience and expertise quickly grew while selling custom labels, folding cartons, and full-service commercial printing. Since the early 2000’s, the explosion of digital printing has transformed the printing and packaging industries. To meet the demands, in 2004 I incorporated FOCUSales to provide a full array of digital and conventional printing and packaging solutions to manufacturers of all sizes.
How can we succeed together?
- Let’s talk!
- We are at our best when we can talk to you about your project needs. Emails are great for details, but let’s get to know each other, so we can gain more insight and to find the right solution. We’re available to connect with you in a variety of ways including on-site meetings, phone calls, Zooms or Teams meetings—let us know what works for you!
- Digital vs Conventional – which is better?
- That isn’t always easily answered. Turnaround time, quantity, size, material, long-term uses all play important parts to determine what is best. Let’s talk so we can work together to find the right solution for you.
- Not always the right fit!
- No one likes to waste time… Given the chance to meet with you and your team, we can best assess how we can be a resource, or not. We recognize that we can’t be all things to all people, so we appreciate the opportunity for an open and honest discussion about your needs, requirements, and goals, so we can determine how we can partner with you.
