4over Opens Midwest Facility
As a host of community leaders and journalists looked on last month, trade printer 4over cut the ribbon to officially open its new 100,000-square-foot printing facility in Huber Heights, Ohio.
The Glendale, Calif.-based company has experienced tremendous growth since opening its doors in 2001, so it decided to add a fifth facility in the Dayton area to cut turnaround times in half for customers in the Midwest, East Coast and Southern regions. These include a number of in-plants that are outsourcing work they can’t cost-effectively produce in-house.
CEO Zarik Megerdichian welcomed attendees and led tours of the spacious facility, which now holds two large Komori presses. Another 40? Sakurai press is on the way, to be joined by a Muller Martini Bravo Plus stitcher and a Heidelberg Stahl folder. Company execs expect the facility to be fully operational by the end of 2007.
Several public officials attended the event and spoke to the three dozen invited guests, who included local media, clients, neighboring businesses and Chamber of Commerce members. Public officials who addressed the crowd included State Representative Fred Strahorn and County Commissioner Dan Foley.
