What sets us apart

Designed in 72 hours. Printed in 48.

We design before we print.

Any print shop can print. What makes a beautiful object happens before: layout, typography, photos, the hierarchy of the text. Drag to see the difference on the same text.

Like an ndop cloth, from hand to hand.

An ndop cloth passes through several workshops before it is worn. So does your order: each step goes to a specialist, and we hold the thread from start to finish.

Before the day

Two banks, one thread.

Indaprint takes its letters from the West and its home from the coast. Two heritages, one conviction: what matters must be passed on to everyone.

The western bank · Foumban

The sign.

Around 1896, King Njoya invented a script for his people. In 1918, he had copper type cast to print it. Our “i” is one of those characters, with its nick.

The Wouri bank · Douala

The place.

Every year, at the Ngondo, the Sawa peoples gather on the banks of the Wouri to receive a message and proclaim it to the whole community. The Ngondo has been on UNESCO's list of the intangible heritage of humanity since 2024. This is where we work, in Ndokoti.

Phones scatter. Paper gathers, from one bank to the other.
