Jan. 28, 2013 - PRLog -- Karol Media, Inc., Wilkes Barre, PA, began managing 16mm film distribution for the likes of National Geographic in the 1970’s. February marks Karol Media’s 37th anniversary year providing storage, packaging, printing, and distribution fulfillment nationally to e-commerce, other business, non-profits, and associations.

Karol fulfillment clients include Central Park Conservancy, DoSomething.org, The Bureau for At Risk Youth, Contemplative Outreach, Wells Fargo, The Guidance Group, and many others.

Karol works with start-up and emerging companies who face the growth issues of modest space and staffing. Karol also meets the needs of established companies requiring the largest warehousing “envelope”, inventory control, and centralized full cycle fulfillment served best from one location, (high SKU counts from multiple product suppliers.)

Most folks of a certain age remember the health and other educational films shown in school gyms. Karol Media began as an educational film distributor of films of this nature. On behalf of sponsors, producers and publishers, films were either circulated or sold, primarily to schools. National Geographic and Phillips Petroleum were early and long-standing Karol Media clients.

Early Karol business development included true fulfillment service: (no marketing and promotional responsibilities to generate sales or material requests.) Karol received orders from clients, like The March of Dimes and KidsPeace, to warehouse, pick, pack, and ship and maintain inventory.

With the advent of VHS video technology, Karol services evolved into video duplication that supported distribution, sponsored and producer clients. Karol’s growing reputation brought over 200 corporate and industrial accounts.
VHS evolved to DVD, with Karol meeting DVD replication services for many accounts. Today, most video for corporate and other organizations is delivered via the Internet.

In this still-foundling Internet Age, Karol delivers SQL platform based services and product and materials printing, packaging, distribution and fulfillment that support online product ordering for e-commerce entrepreneurs, established catalog merchants, and corporate and non-profit marketing clients.  

The essence of this is a company that supports product, promotion, campaign, and literature on a national landscape.
