Meet the Owner

Derrick De Mey
Owner and Publisher

As the City Publications Grand Rapids franchise owner, my goal is to connect your growing business with the right-fit program to reach your ideal customer.

With more than 15 years of experience driving sales and helping both mom-and-pop shops and multi-million dollar businesses solve problems, I am passionate about building long-term relationships and designing effective programs and solutions for my customers.

I’ve lived in the greater Grand Rapids area my entire life, and I enjoy seeing it grow and thrive. My wife of more than 20 years and I live with two of our children on the north end of Grand Rapids. We feel blessed to have our two older children and three grandbabies living nearby. In my spare time, I jump on a mountain bike and hit all of the area trails.
