Lehigh Rides High at Supplier Appreciation Gala

"We value and need supplier commitment," concluded Frick, "responding in the clutch, meeting ever-compressing cycle times and conquering so many other challenges. The seminal issue in the American manufacturing sector, including the printing industry, is how to increase the top line and improve earnings—in an environment absent of pricing power. In our view, the answer is threefold: technology innovation, increased value-added specialty services and sheer productivity gains. With your vital partnership, Lehigh has built a distinguishing value proposition based on these three ingredients."
