Who We Are

“Your Community Directory For Everything Local”

For over 30 years, Metropolitan Publishing has been an industry leader in local directory advertising. Proudly serving the communities in the Northwest Houston area, Metropolitan offers full-service targeted advertising plans that include print and online marketing.

Metropolitan Directories, available in print and online, have gained an award-winning reputation for being “More Than Just A Phone Book.” They are extensive community resource guides for everything in the local area, containing useful information on businesses, schools, travel, shopping, events, attractions and public services just to name a few.

The success of Metropolitan Publishing Company is due in large part to the hard work, dedication and foresight of Art and Vickie Brown. Years ago, they recognized that local businesses, both large and small, were in need of affordable targeted advertising solutions, as well as community residents needed a useful, up-to-date informational directory, and that is the mission has been successfully accomplished year after year. In the beginning, Art and Vickie alone organized all aspects of the publishing including sales, production and distribution. Today, Metropolitan has grown into an advertising company that serves three markets across Northwest Houston, with annual distribution of over 275,000 telephone directories and new online directories that reach over 1 million residents.

With the continued leadership and vision of Britt Heald and Jenny Young, Art and Vickie’s daughters, Metropolitan Publishing Company still maintains the timeless principles of serving the best interests of our customers, striving to continually develop innovative products and aspiring to improve the quality of life for our customers, users and staff members.

To the many communities and businesses we serve, Metropolitan Publishing would like to say “Thank You” for making us your preferred choice among community directories and yellow page advertising. We pride ourselves in providing you with a high quality, useful and easy-to-use resource that contains the most reliable and complete information available regarding local businesses, community information and residential listings. We hope to continually exceed our prior accomplishments and your future expectations for many years to come. We are proud to call the communities in which we serve home.
