The People Who Make It Happen

Carmel Therien
Owner/President

B&M Printing was established in 1982 by Bertrand and Marguerite Girard, my sister and brother-in-law. I have been involved in every aspect of the family business for over 30 years, subsequently purchasing it in 2005. From design and production to administration, I’m on site, working with the team. As the owner of a small business, I understand how time and money constraints can hinder your efforts to successfully promote your own business.

We’re here to help! We get to know each of our clients and their businesses and we partner with many vendors to create high quality, professionally designed products to suit your budget. My courteous, helpful and knowledgeable staff will go the extra mile to ensure customer satisfaction. I am very proud of this growing family owned and operated business and will someday pass it on to the dedicated B&M team.

Kayla (Therien) Marsh
Graphic Designer/Office Manager

Kayla (Carmel’s Daughter) joined the B & M team in 2006. She has managed the forefront of B&M Printing since the day she started. Her dedication to providing exceptional customer service and high quality finished printed products to our customers exemplify our core values. Her commitment to growth & knowledge is the future of B&M Printing. She has taken business courses as well as graphic arts programs which have helped her with the one-on-one customer consultations and graphic designing services offered to our customers.

She has proven to be a determined, passionate employee and a leader for the B&M team. If you are looking for a unique look or a branding logo you definitely want to sit with Kayla.

Carissa (Therien) Lococo
Clerical/Sales Representative

Carissa (Carmel’s Daughter) joined the B&M team in 2008. We like to think of Ris as our all around girl. She is involved in virtually every aspect of the business such as order processing, invoicing, bookkeeping, pre-press, post-press bindery, numbering, collating, folding, booklet making and deliveries. She continues to learn and grow with the business. She is a right hand to Kayla and she will share the business with her when Carmel (Mom) retires. If you are looking for a customer representative to follow through from start to finish, Carissa will get it done!
