    Altr has Customized Printing All Buttoned Up

    Alexandra Gramatikas’s business started with a winning idea.  While attending University of Central Florida’s (UCF’s) MBA program, Alex entered her business plan for custom printed button covers in UCF’s entrepreneur competition, and took first place.
    As part of her award, Alex’s company, Altr, received a space in the university’s “incubator.” Soon, Alex moved Altr’s production in-house with the purchase of a Roland VersaUV LEF-series bechtop UV printer. “We saw the LEF perform at SGIA– it was doing the same thing as printers that cost a lot more money."

    Winning at Cornhole with Roland's Flatbed Technology

    Winning at Cornhole with Roland's Flatbed Technology

    “A decade ago, hardly anyone had heard of the game of cornhole. Now it’s everywhere,” said Shane Back, co-owner of AJJ Enterprises in Cincinnati, Ohio. Shane and three friends sold their first customized cornhole set online in 2005.  

    The concept proved extremely popular, and AJJ Enterprises soon moved its business out of a garage and into a small warehouse.  They also began using digital printing.  “At first we were outsourcing, then I realized, hey, I could just buy a printer,” said Shane.  “I got a Roland – the same kind our local shop had – and we’ve never looked back.”
