Best Sign Company: AlphaGraphics

FIRST TIME ON LIST

AlphaGraphics owner Dennis Tallman says pairing cutting-edge equipment with a talented team focused on relationships is the key to the North Liberty shop’s success – and the reason behind its first win in the Best Sign Company category.“Over the years we’ve built a great relationship with our customers and members of the community,” said Mr. Tallman, who also cited AlphaGraphics’ state-of-the-art machinery, including a large for-mat flatbed printer that has been “producing signs non-stop since the day it was installed” and a Zund digital cutter to be added to the mix later this summer.

AlphaGraphics doesn’t plan to stop there – more equipment upgrades and additions are expected in the months and years ahead in keeping with advances in the printing industry. The company is also looking forward to celebrating its 10-year anniversary in November “with the community that voted for us as 2018 Best Sign Company in the Corridor,” Mr. Tallman said.
