Webnews Printing Inc was established by Dat (aka Dave) Nguyen in 1998. Dat had been publishing Thoi Bao, Canada’s leading Vietnamese newspaper, since 1986. Thoi Bao was growing and expanding across the country and Dat was looking for ways to improve the quality of his newspaper while minimizing costs. From conversations with other publishers, he knew Thoi Bao was not alone in its desire for better quality and reasonable costs and so, after looking at several options, Dat decided to go into the printing business. He bought a small, 6,000 sq ft plant on Oakdale Road, replaced its out-of-date equipment, and Webnews Printing was born.

By 2001, the customer list had grown substantially and the printing presses in the plant on Oakdale Rd could no longer keep up. More space was needed and so it was that Webnews Printing moved to its current 18,000 sq ft facility at High Meadow Place, North York. The team set-up the equipment at the end of the summer of 2001 and started printing in September.

With the growth of online news, the newspaper industry has had its struggles in the new millennium but there continues to be a strong need for community and ethnic newspapers and Webnews Printing is proud of its role in delivering quality and value to help many such newspapers thrive over the last decade of tumultuous change. We are now serving more than 100 community and ethnic publications, including more than 40 weekly newspapers, printing top quality newspapers on time, all the time, for publishers throughout Ontario, other Canadian provinces, and in the United States.
