Trusted by Illinois Print Shops
"River City is my go-to for everything. Chromaline emulsion always in stock, ships in 2 days, and their team actually picks up the phone. Way better selection and pricing than any local Illinois supplier I've tried."
"Ordered a ROQ press through River City and the process was smooth from start to finish. Got real human help choosing the right setup for our production volume — their expertise made all the difference."
"Finally a supplier with Inktek Solar White reliably in stock. River City ships same day and I have it 2 days later. That reliability alone made switching 100% worth it."
"We've been buying our Murakami emulsion and Easiway chemicals from River City for 3 years. They always have what we need, the free shipping kicks in fast, and the customer service team actually knows screen printing."
"Peoria shop here — Midwest suppliers are slow and overpriced. River City ships in 2–3 days with free shipping at $200 and a better brand selection than anyone in the region."
"The ACG equipment financing made our new Vastex press possible. Fast approval, and the Section 179 write-off was real. River City walked us through the whole thing. Couldn't have upgraded our shop without them."
