Mobile sales and acquisitions drive double-digit profit and sales

Huntington Beach, CA – MailPix, the photo-printing, canvas and gifting site, announced 2018 sales revenue were up 38 percent and profits up 53 percent, compared to the prior year. The privately-held company attributed the revenue and margin growth to the recent acquisitions of Photobucket’s PrintShopLab.com and RitzPix.com and to the continued growth of its 1 Hour Photo app.

Lerner, founder and CEO. “We are continuing to manage our growth with strategic brand acquisitions and mobile app development.”
