Company History
With more than 100 years of combined Yellow Pages experience, three former Pacific Bell executives founded AGI Publishing, Inc. in June 1985. In 1987, they began operations as Valley Yellow Pages and established a corporate office in Fresno, California. The first directory, “Fresno & Clovis,†was published in 1988. Today, more than 500 people are employed by Valley Yellow Pages throughout Central and Northern California.
Valley Yellow Pages was founded on the principle of bringing direct competition to the marketplace thus providing advertisers with a choice in Yellow Pages advertising. And, the best way to do this is through creating an invaluable resource containing all types of local business and community information, which would also serve as an effective, and affordable, advertising vehicle. As a result, Valley Yellow Pages’ advertising rates are lower than the rates of its larger competitors, and its community information sections are award winning.
With advancements in technology, particularly the Internet and mobile devices, Valley Yellow Pages has expanded its local search efforts beyond print Yellow Pages to include Internet Yellow Pages at myyp.com, virtual Yellow Pages at myyp.net, and mobile apps.
As Valley Yellow Pages has grown from its humble beginnings, it has become not only an important corporate resource, but also a valuable contributor to the communities it serves. All of the employees of Valley Yellow Pages continue to build upon the company’s prominent standing in the industry, while maintaining its tradition of delivering the best possible product at the best possible price.

Provided by YP.comNow a days yellow pages are used less an less because we have the internet on smartphones at our fingertips to find what we need. Many companies have dropped out of doing business in the yellow pages for this reason. Not only that, it is very expensive to maintain unless you have the best placement position. In this I have experienced sales representatives from Valley Yellow Pages act in bad faith in perhaps the need to make sales. Convincing inside information was given to us to help influence our company to sign a contract with Valley Yellow Pages. The sad part is that we believed these representatives and in the end nothing they said was the truth. And now, they are using the " i never said that card", to get out of it. Beware of trusting sales people. Wish I read the previous review cited in 2011 regarding this company that you can find on yahoo.
