CINCINNATI, OH– Olberding Brand Family, a fourth-generation, family-owned, global graphic services company, recently announced its expansion to St. Louis, MO. Initial staff at the new site numbers 15 graphic services and account management professionals. Plans will double that number over the next two years.
The firm is actively hiring, capitalizing on the high concentration of experienced premedia/prepress professionals in the St. Louis market.
Focused on holistically partnering with brand owners, such as Procter & Gamble, The Kroger Co., Scotts, Kimberly-Clark, Church & Dwight, The Hershey Co, Tyson, L’Oréal and Kao Brands, among others, Olberding Brand Family creates a seamless path from design-to-shelf through the entire brand activation lifecycle, from the physical store shelf to the digital shelf.
“St. Louis has a rich packaging history and with recent industry consolidation, has created a deep pool of experienced professionals with specialized skills that are increasingly rare in the domestic market. These professionals have weathered industry transformations, adapted to technological shifts, and understand the high standards that domestic clients expect. They bring something that can’t be easily replicated with offshore personnel–a deep understanding of both technical requirements and client expectations in the U.S. market,” noted John Herbstreit, chief graphics officer, Olberding Brand Family.
“St. Louis is very culturally similar to Cincinnati in terms of its value system, and since we are a family-owned company, values and culture are integral to employee satisfaction and retention–and a strategic growth advantage,” Herbstreit continued.
Olberding Brand Family’s St. Louis office is located at 9700 MacKenzie Rd, Afton, MO. The company employs more than 400 people across 10 offices in North America, the UK and China.
U.S. offices are located in Cincinnati, OH; Columbus, OH; Atlanta, GA; Dallas, TX; Tampa, FL; and now, St. Louis, MO.
