Custom Business Specialists, Inc., publisher of several business directories in Brevard County, FL announced that its two new coupon menus are Brevard’s 1st “Green Publications”, printed on environmentally friendly recycled paper and with bio-degradable, soy-based inks.

The announcement by CBS president Gary Kitchens comes as the company launches Seniors Love Coupons and Tourists Love Coupons, marketed to area seniors and visitors, respectively. Each of the coupon menus will have an initial run of 25,000 copies.

“We live in an environmentally sensitive and diverse region of Florida and feel it is our obligation to do what we can to lessen the impact on our natural resources, especially as we grow and produce more publications and copies for our clients and customer”, said Kitchens. “By printing on recycled paper and using soy-based inks we acknowledge our responsibility to our advertisers and our community to be good stewards of our environment.”

What started as an effort to support local beachside businesses that were affected by the closure of State Road A1A following September 11, 2001, CBS’s flagship publication, the Val-U Directory has expanded from the original Beach Val-U Directory, serving Cape Canaveral and Cocoa Beach, to include separate publications serving specific markets including Merritt Island, the city of Rockledge, and the Suntree/Viera area. Seniors Love Coupons and Tourists Love Coupons complement the Val-U directories and will be distributed to the markets for which they are named. Each of the publications is also available online at www.valudirectory.com.
