Second New President Appointed Within Nationwide Graphics Group

HOUSTON—August 25, 2010—Graphics West, one of the nation's top commercial printers and communication companies, and a division of Nationwide Graphics, is pleased to announce that Robert Madison has become President of Graphics West in Las Vegas.

Madison comes to Nationwide Graphics from an eight-year tenure as president at Creative Press, LLC. He managed both locations in Nevada and Phoenix, where capabilities ranged from offset printing to ecommerce solutions.

"We're very happy with Rob coming aboard," Nationwide Graphics' CEO Carl Norton said. "The future of any printing organization is to cultivate a culture of thinking beyond printing-a holistic approach of marketing, communications and custom solutions for our growing client base. Rob brings and supports that mentality-that exposure-to the organization."

Familiar with the Las Vegas market, Madison is excited to bring his business expertise to Graphics West. "We're positioned at a very enviable spot-we're minutes away from the Strip," Madison said. "The solutions that Graphics West can bring to the tradeshow business, the casino business, and everything in-between are monumental. We're about to make waves."

Last week it was announced that Dodd Communications, one of the nation’s top commercial printers and communication companies, had named Richard Sierra president of the Miami-based firm.

Sierra has devoted over 44 years to the printing profession, 33 of which he’s been a manager. Before coming to Nationwide Graphics, Sierra was the Division President and Director of Sales at National Communications, LLC, in Miami for six years.

“There’s so much opportunity in Miami,” Sierra said. “I believe with the structure that’s in place, we can grow our business by researching and providing solutions to our current client base, as well as listening to, and meeting and exceeding their needs.”

Norton commented, “Miami is a unique market with vast opportunities. It’s imperative that we have someone with the mindset and the ambition leading the charge at that division. It goes without saying that Rich is that person.”
