Fast-track Firms — Movin’ On Up

In 1996, Henry Wurst Inc., better known as HWI, was a web printer with a plant in Kansas City and a facility in Apex, NC. Today, after two acquisitions and a big consolidation, HWI is a four-plant operation, with additional locations in Denver and Burlington, NC. The merger of three companies into one under the corporate Wurst umbrella provides an unusually broad scope of capabilities for the printer’s customers—from sheetfed and web printing, to digital printing and Web-to-print, to binding, mailing and fulfillment, and even call centers.
