Fruth Group Inc. is a locally owned business technology solutions provider headquartered in Phoenix Arizona, serving education, government, and commercial organizations throughout the state. Founded in 2000, Fruth Group supports more than 600 school districts, charter schools, municipalities, and private organizations with enterprise class technology and a highly responsive local service model.
As an authorized dealer for Canon Kyocera and Lexmark, Fruth Group delivers a full portfolio of multifunction copiers and printers engineered for security, reliability, scalability, and long term value. Our solutions are designed to meet the operational and budgetary demands of modern educational environments.
What differentiates Fruth Group is our commitment to partnership rather than transactional sales. Our team works closely with client stakeholders to assess current state environments, identify opportunities for consolidation or improvement, and implement solutions that are both financially responsible and operationally sound. This consultative approach is supported by our in house service organization, certified technicians, and dedicated account management structure, ensuring continuity from initial deployment through long term support.
Beyond hardware, Fruth Group provides managed print services, document and print management software, workflow automation, secure print, and fleet optimization. These services enable schools and public agencies to reduce costs, improve accountability, and strengthen data security while aligning technology with broader operational goals.
Fruth Group operates more physical locations in Arizona than any other vendor in our category, with offices in Phoenix, Tucson, Yuma, and Prescott. This footprint allows us to deliver faster response times, localized support, and consistent service coverage statewide.
