Vincent Printing, which has been providing large-format printing solutions to customers in the outdoor advertising industry across the nation and throughout the world since 1940, announced Wednesday that FutureTech Holding Company, Beau Wells, and MLJB Holdings have officially acquired the company from longtime owners, Doug and Charlie Casey. The acquisition was finalized on Dec. 29, and the terms of the sale were not disclosed.
As part of the acquisition, the ownership group has named a management team to lead Vincent Printing going forward. Effective immediately, Beau Wells will become president and chief executive officer, Glen Brooks will be the chief financial officer, and Alison Henry will be vice president of Customer Engagement. The company plans to expand the management team over the next few months.
“Today is an exciting day for the future of Vincent Printing, our employees, and the customers we passionately serve every day,” said Mr. Wells. “While the company may have a change in ownership, it does not represent any change in our commitment to deliver large-format printing solutions that bring big brand ideas to life while providing exceptional customer service to our clients, something Vincent Printing has done continuously since 1940.
"This change marks an important next step for Vincent Printing. It will create broader opportunities where we can make needed investments in technology, equipment, facilities and our employees – investments that will ensure our company has the ability to expand its product offerings, serve new vertical markets to drive future business opportunities, and write the next chapter in our rich history.”
Headquartered in Chattanooga, Vincent Printing is a full-service printing company that specializes in large-format printing solutions for the outdoor, retail, sports, and transit industries. With employees based in many cities throughout the country, the company has established a legacy of providing premier printing solutions for some of the most recognizable brands throughout the world. Today, Vincent Printing helps customers tailor their brand campaigns to push the limits of what a print medium can be, said officials.
Another important endeavor at Vincent Printing is giving back and supporting causes important to its employees. The new ownership group is committed to this core value.
Mr. Wells added, “Vincent Printing is one of Chattanooga’s best kept secrets. We have been a part of the Chattanooga community for more than 80 years, and due to the hard work and efforts of our employees, we are recognized nationally as a leader in the large format printing industry. Going forward, we will strive to identify ways we can raise our presence and support important causes within the industry and in the communities where our employees live, work and play.”
