About Us
MARCOA proudly serves over 75% of domestic U.S. military installations
as one of the largest and longest established publishers of military
base installation guides, telephone directories, and maps. We have been
under the same continuous leadership since our founding in 1966, and
this continuity has forged a strong bond with all the military services
over more than four decades. Many of our employees are former active
duty military, and our national sales force includes many former
military personnel. Our reputation for integrity and the highest ethical
standards is well known throughout the entire United States Military
community.
Our publications are distributed by commands to all incoming personnel
six to eight weeks prior to their arrival. This gives them the
opportunity to acquaint themselves and their families with the
installation facilities, services, schools, housing, and available
recreation including the hours of operation and appropriate telephone
numbers. Guides include a section on surrounding areas that contains
employment information for spouses and other pertinent information to
help make the transition less stressful.
Our national headquarters and main production facility are located in
San Diego, California, and feature professionals with specialized skills
and decades of experience in the publishing industry. MARCOA's
production facility was designed and constructed to optimize our entire
publishing operation, from concept to final product. We maintain an
in-house printing plant, an innovative graphic arts design studio, video
conferencing facilities and world-class offices.
The ability to contain all of these facets under one roof results in
superior products.
We are proud to say that our publications are 100% “Made in the USA”.
We buy our products from American business owners, and we employ
Americans.
