Ennis Acquires Hoosier Data Forms; Production Will Be Consolidated Into Printegra Indianapolis

MIDLOTHIAN, TX—October 7, 2014—Ennis Inc. has announced the acquisition of Hoosier Data Forms in Indianapolis. Hoosier Data Forms produces traditional snap-outs, continuous forms, cut sheets and additional value added services. John Cornelius, previous owner of Hoosier Data Forms, will remain with Hoosier in a sales and management capacity.

Keith Walters, chairman, CEO and president of Ennis Inc., commented, "We are pleased to add John Cornelius, Hoosier Data Forms and their loyal customers to the Ennis family. Hoosier Data Forms has been serving the region for almost 40 years and the Cornelius family’s historic printing roots go back more than 100 years serving Midwest distributors."

Considering the close proximity of the Printegra Indianapolis and Hoosier Data Forms locations, the company will be consolidating the production into one facility. To minimize any negative impact on its customers, the transition of Printegra Indianapolis from its current location to the new combined facility at 1002 East 25th Street, will be planned and executed over the next six months. Both companies and their employees will continue to operate under their respective brands.
