Another example of cost reduction through in-house production is laser engraving. “We produce 200 name tags a week,” says Roth. When an outside company made them, they took a month and cost $4.95 each; now they take three and a half days and run just $1.95, he says.

Roth is proud of how much the in-plant is saving Love’s. “We were able to very conservatively calculate that we saved the company about $1.27 million,” he says.
