Spending Dollars

The 4,500-square-foot shop produces everything from signs to coupons for Dollar Tree's home office, four distribution centers and 1,400 stores nationwide. The company is expanding, and graphic arts manager Jeff Edney saw that his in-plant needed to expand its capabilities to keep up.

"The company planned to grow at a rate of 20 percent a year, so in five years we would have to more than double our production capabilities within the same space," he explains.
