History

PSDA was initially established in 1946 as the National Business Forms Association and evolved into the Document Management Industries Association in the 1990s. The association changed its name in October 2007 to Print Services & Distribution Association in response to changes in the industry and to give a more accurate representation of its membership base. The rebranding was formally announced at the 2007 Print Solutions Conference & Expo at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Currently, PSDA has over 1000 member companies that include print distributors, promotional products distributors, advertising agencies, design firms, freelancers, trade printers, commercial printers and industry suppliers.
The majority of its membership is located within the United States, though it does boast some international affiliates. PSDA's headquarters is located in Chicago, IL.
