Meredith-Webb Chooses Specially-configured KBA Rapida 106 Press
While the new Rapida 106 41˝ press is Meredith-Webb’s first KBA machine, management had been following KBA developments for many years. “We would see KBA presses being operated at strong, successful printing companies,” recalls Kelly Webb. “You look to see what other printers are operating and talk to the owners. Over and over, we would hear about KBA’s exceptional service, reliability, and technology.”
“During the past three years, Travers and I have changed the management structure in our company in which we have given our employees new opportunities and delegated management responsibilities with a new commitment to quality and productivity,” says Kelly Webb. “While other printing firms are reducing head counts, we’re adding quality employees. We have an entrepreneurial spirit and enthusiasm and we’re continuing to build solid relationships with our customers and our suppliers. It’s an exciting time for us and we look forward to installing our new KBA press this fall.”
