Allied Printing--Crowning Customers

Jon Kaufman, 39, vice president of technology development, has worked at Allied Printing for 16 years and was also greatly influenced by the teachings of John F. Sommers, who passed away in January 1994.

"Over the years, Allied has skyrocketed because of the reinvestment the Sommers family has made in the equipment we've brought in to handle different types of work," Kaufman says. "The company has expanded its potential, which has grown our customer base. Our clients are very loyal—some have been with us since the beginning."
