Go big or go home.
As the old saying goes, Brown chose to go BIG this year. We have expanded our space, our people and our product line. We also added a few colors to the Brown machine pallet for a little fun. With expansion comes change and a few bumps in the road. But our staff was ready for a few challenges to get us through.
BrownDigital has a developing partnership with Brother International. This partnership has fostered new product for the Print-on-Demand world that Brother specializes in. The POD sales strategy is immediate delivery of one off printed items. Garments have a large segment of that market and they require a few additional processes compared to other one-off pieces. This rapidly expanding market requires faster machinery to keep up with the volume and Brown delivered with the DigitalLine, an exclusive product for Brother.
The size of this system required additional assembly space. So, Brown added a Crown. Well an address on Crown anyway. The added space has allowed all of our production departments to stretch their legs a bit. As an example, where the space on Stafford allowed for 2 Electraprint machines to be assembled at the same time, this new space allows for 5. As well as multiple manual machines and curing systems.
Your staff appreciates the space and is looking forward to upping the volume to fill the new building.
One other expansion that is a direct result of the POD market is the addition of new software modules available for the Linx Production Software . In addition to the already stellar workflow application, new modules for inventory management, purchasing and QuickBoook integration have been developed to fill the every changing needs of our POD customer. Contact us for additional information on how Linx can improve the work flow and organization within your production floor.
The new space and the new offerings have made our lives a little stressful (as moving often does) but the impact of the change and the production results just keep showing us that this was a well needed expansion and that we have more room to grow.
