2002-2005 - Advance Goes West – and Wide

With continued growth in both sales and staff, Advance doubled its Cockeysville headquarters in 2002 with a state of the art office addition and two level parking garage.

After 40 years of success in the Baltimore metropolitan region, Advance Business Systems puts down roots in Frederick and opens its third location on West Patrick Street.

Two years later, Advance purchased a Frederick-based copier dealer, Service Concepts, and assumed the handling of sales and services for all of their customers. With the new acquisition, Advance decided to operate two offices-the original on West Patrick Street, as well as the former Service Concepts location.

In 2005, after much demand from its architectural, engineering and construction customers, Advance took customers beyond standard sized office paper into the world of monochrome KIP wide format copying, printing and scanning. Three years later, Advance added Canon color ink jet plotters to its wide format line.
