Bridgetown was founded on June 4th, 1902 as Ryder Printing Company. It was owned and operated by the Ryder family for three generations.

In 1983, Oregon Lithoprint, Inc. / News Register Publishing Co. of McMinnville purchased the assets of Ryder Printing Company and continued its operation in the Portland market. Then-president, Thomas Ryder retained all rights to the family name after the sale and our company's name was officially changed to Bridgetown Printing Company in 1985.

In 1996, Consolidated Graphics, Inc. of Houston, Texas purchased the company and continues the long tradition of fine printing established by its previous owners. Consolidated Graphics, currently traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol CGX, adds value to the company by providing managerial and operational expertise, financial strength and economies of scale.

In 2007, Bridgetown Printing relocated to a 48,000 square foot facility in the Swan Island Industrial Park. Coinciding with the move, Bridgetown replaced all three of its high-speed printing presses with two new Komori LS 6-color 40" coater presses. Additionally, Bridgetown added new bindery and mailing equipment, drastically expanding their finishing capabilities.

Currently, Bridgetown Printing is one of the largest commercial printers in Portland, Oregon.
