Individuality is a trend that should never go out of style. There was a time, not so long ago, when choices were limited to the mundane. These days, originality is encouraged and embraced like never before. Almost everything can be tailored to our specific needs and wants. Cars, cell phones, household appliances, even contact lenses can be found in every color of the rainbow and in colors nature never intended. It's cool to be custom. CafePress recognized the growing demand for more personalized product and became one of the leaders of personal expression.
CafePress came about in 1999 when co-founder Fred Durham combined two of his nine failed business ventures. One assisted small businesses in online sales and the other helped people print more effectively.
