A ribbon cutting ceremony was held to mark the 50th anniversary of Laipply’s Printing & Marketing Solutions Inc.

Laipply’s Printing & Marketing Solutions began as a fast copy shop franchise of Big Red Q Quickprint on Main Street in 1973. Within the franchise, they quickly gained recognition winning both the President’s and Director’s awards for nearly every year within the franchise. They created sales that ranked in the top five of the over 450 national franchises.

In 1982, founders Ron & Effie Laipply, moved their growing business to its current location at 270 E. Center St., Marion. Eventually, they left the franchise and became a more full-service graphic design and print production company known as Laipply’s Quickprint & Graphics. In 2008, their daughter, Jacqueline (Laipply) Psyhogios, chose to buy out the company and continue the tradition of the local family business. With that change came another name change to their current identity as Laipply’s Printing & Marketing Solutions, Inc.

In celebration and thanks to the community for 50 great years of partnership, Laipply’s purchased over $500 worth of local gift cards to area businesses. One lucky customer’s name was drawn from a hat and the gift bag was awarded to Marena Dutton of Cardington Yutaka Technologies.

The company is open 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. Monday thru Thursday and 9 a.m. - 4 p.m. Friday. For more information, call 740-387-9282, email info@laipplyqprint.com, or visit laipplyqprint.com.
