    A History That Spans DecadesThe year was 1930. Clavano Printers was just a humble letterpress and photoengraving shop. The small business had so much promise, but the ravages of World War II forced the enterprise to close down. Unfazed by setbacks, owner and founder, Atty. Jose B. Clavano, together with his wife, Enriqueta V. Clavano, dared to revive and re-establish the business in June 1948. With this revival, more sophisticated printing machinery and equipment were introduced. A new hope was sparked and a new vigor inspired the Clavanos to resurrect their old dreams and move forward.Unstoppable GrowthIn a relatively short time, Clavano Printers was able to rise anew. It consistently attracted loyal clientele from Cebu and other neighboring provinces. Year after year, the exponential increase in the volume of job orders was phenomenal. Finally, in 1964, the single proprietorship business became a corporation (Jose Clavano Incorporated). Through all this growth and change, Clavano Printers remained steadfast in its goal to keep providing premier printing services for clients from Cebu and beyond.High Quality Printing Since 1930With a history as rich as the colors that we print, Clavano Printers is one of the most formidable printing businesses in Cebu. We produce a wide variety of marketing and presentation materials including brochures, posters, newsletters, packaging, labels, and more.The caliber of our clients is a true reflection of our excellent services.

    I was their finance manager.
    The good thingsThis a classic family business where most of the relatives are active. What was good with it was they treated even employees as family. Very caring but focused family. They like to be surrounded with people they learn and gain experience from.
    The challengesThe organizational chart gets a little confusing. The family has the tendency to always decide as a group. Though every step is deliberate, things move rather slow.
