Wise has emerged as a role model for growth. This family business, deeply rooted in the printing industry, is a powerful example of how to pivot to maintain success. The company has made multiple significant pivots – from newspapers, to commercial printing, to being a trade printer of business forms and then prime and durable labels – illustrating how to expand, reinvent, and succeed as the market changes around you. 

Wise’s Label Division, now one of the leaders in short- and medium-run digital labels, has come a long way from the company’s newspaper roots dating to 1903. 

Meanwhile, Yazoo Mills, a large family-owned and operated manufacturer of paper tubes and cores, has prioritized tailored service solutions for label converters. To learn how it meets the high standards required for tape and label applications, L&NW sat down with Chris Evans, North American sales director.
