Anderson & Vreeland Celebrates 50th Anniversary

BRYAN, Ohio—Anderson & Vreeland (A&V), a leading supplier of flexo prepress equipment and materials, marks a milestone in January, 2011—a half-century of supplying platemaking equipment and materials to the flexographic industry.

In January, 1961, Wesley Anderson and Howard Vreeland, Sr. joined together to form a company that has become one of the foremost flexographic prepress suppliers. The business more than doubled projected sales in its first year. A&V began growing with the industry it served, opening an Atlanta facility in 1964 and a West Covina, California facility in 1969. Elk Grove Village, Illinois soon followed and a nationwide sales/distribution network was established.
