ABOUT US

Speedy Print is owned and operated by Keith Ernst. Speedy Print was first a franchise, "Sir Speedy", and went into operation in 1972 at the Wells Building on 324. E. Wisconsin Ave downtown Milwaukee. Sir Speedy specialized in quick turnaround time for the downtown advertising agencies, offering black ink printing on white or colored paper. After a few months in operation, Keith and an associate discovered a way to use the plate technology to print using colored inks. This lead to a very rapid growth in business.

Keith took his franchise independent in 1975, and renamed the company "Speedy, the Professional Printer". The emphasis of the company continued to be a quick turnaround time coupled with free pickup and delivery and of course, high quality printing.

In 1987 Speedy moved to it's current location in the Third Ward. Speedy purchased an AB Dick automated press capable of printing short run, quick turnaround materials with electrostatic plate technology.

Six years later in 1993, Speedy invested in digital copying technology, expanding their market share in servicing legal professionals, insurance companies, civic organizations, non-profit organizations and others.

A few years later, Speedy enhanced their capabilities with digital four-color printing. This brought Speedy full circle to service advertising needs for agencies and in-house advertising professionals requiring professional full color, fast turnaround materials.
