Texas Monthly Custom Publishing (TMCP) has been a division of TEXAS MONTHLY magazine since 1991. For almost 20 years, they have served clients across the state and beyond by publishing magazines and books that help them communicate with their customers, colleagues, and employees. Beginning with their first client, the state tourism office (Office of the Governor, Economic Development and Tourism), TMCP has been focused on the economic success of the state and of Texas companies, including outstanding institutions such as H-E-B grocery, the University of Texas, Scott and White, Hampton Inn, and the Greater Houston Partnership. While they borrow from Texas Monthly’s 30+ years of experience, they stand apart as a division with their own staff and time-tested crew of freelance writers, editors, photographers, fact-checkers, and copyeditors.
