CUSTOMER SPOTLIGHT:

Leader Printing (Jacksonville, Arkansas) has been using WebPress equipment since 1989, when they purchased a line consisting of 6 Web Leader units, rollstands, and a folder.  Over the years they have added additional equipment, including a Quadra Color and three Quad-Stack units as well as an additional folder.

Garrick Feldman, owner & publisher, reported that The Leader was recently awarded the 2015 General Excellence Award from the Arkansas Press Association Better Newspaper Contest for the 7th time in the last 8 years.  They also received 31 category-specific awards, including first-place awards for Single Feature Photograph, Single Sports Action Photograph, and Coverage of Tourism among others.  The Leader also won the Advertising Sweepstakes Award and first-place honors for Best Special Sports section and Best Use of Process Color at the APA's winter convention earlier this year.

"We couldn't consistently win these awards without the quality produced by our WebPress color units", states the publisher.   "Our staff is very pleased that the equipment has the ability to highlight their work."

Garrick depends on the reliability of their printing units, and appreciates the support Leader Printing receives  from WebPress.  "The only problem for you guys (WebPress) is that our equipment just keeps on working...we'll probably never need to replace it."  

We're happy that you're happy, Garrick!

INTRINSIC VALUE OF NEWSPAPERS 

"They (newspapers) stand up for their communities, whether they are big or small, and they fight for change. It's very unusual to see big media campaigns fighting for any meaningful social change in a medium other than newspapers and their associated websites. Much has changed in newspapers over the years, but one thing that hasn't is that we still pride ourselves on being the voice of our communities."
