Tom further explains, “We started speaking with Minuteman Press Regional VP Rich DeRosa about the possible sale of our business in August of 2022. Minuteman Press has a solid reputation and Rich thoroughly explained their process. He brought us a buyer rather quickly and Rich facilitated the selling process and kept us on a schedule of events that helped us to secure our sale in a timely manner.”

Meet the New Owners
Majdolin Jasser spent 30 years in the oil and gas upstream industry as Petroleum Engineer. She also owns and maintains residential rental properties. Her husband Jasser Jasser has owned and operated businesses overseas and is currently managing the family’s residential rental properties.
Their son Fawzi Jasser is a recent graduate of the University of Houston with a Bachelor of Science degree in Digital Media. He also worked at the University print shop for two years in graphic design and production.
Majdolin shares, “We decided to buy an established business. First, we did some research and became interested in the B2B market. We looked into wide range of listings for nearly a year before coming across this business listing for a print shop. Through that, we met Rich DeRosa and he introduced us to Minuteman Press.”
She continues, “Overall, the process has been very impressive. Minuteman Press works like a well-oiled machine. The training was essential and focused toward people that did not have any prior industry experience. The tools they provided us will be essential to sustaining and growing this business into the future.”
“We do not take owning this business lightly. We are now responsible for our employees and our customers. The gratification comes from both serving our customers as well as the financial reward.” -Majdolin Jasser, owner, Minuteman Press, Avon Lake, Ohio (formerly Avon Lake Printing and Signs)
Majdolin reflects on her experience with Minuteman Press, concluding, “We worked closely Rich DeRosa throughout the transaction. He is extremely knowledgeable and has a very effective and streamlined process. After taking the 2-week training course, it was evident that the Minuteman Press staff is professional and skilled. They believe in the brand and work tirelessly to grow the company.”
When asked what advice she would give to others about buying a business, Madjolin says, “Do the appropriate level of research before narrowing down the choices. Ensure that you are willing to learn and retrain.”
