His family-owned company provides an array of services–printing, marketing and branding, warehousing and fulfillment, janitorial, office, and safety supplies– as the premier go-to for business solutions across various industries in the Southeastern region.
Catlett’s passion and advocacy for minority-owned businesses support his role as CCI’s latest board member. “My biggest goal is to make an impact,” shared Cartlett of his recent partnership. “I was once part of the minority organizations like CCI that help businesses. So, I want to help minority small businesses understand what it takes to run a company due to my successes, failures, and errors. I hope I can give people insight on how to be successful.”
Catlett, originally from Virginia, grew up in Baltimore, MD, and earned a Bachelor of Science in Accounting from Johnson C. Smith University. He currently resides in Raleigh with his wife Sonya and three adult children.
