Louisville, KY (PRWEB) December 19, 2016 -- Custom labels leader Discount Labels is merging with Lancer Label effective January 1, 2017. The company will move forward as Discount Labels and will become a single source provider for its growing network of resellers. “We have been in a strategic partnership for many months,” says Eric Lanz, Senior Vice President. “Our customers are excited by our enhanced capabilities, streamlined customer service and expanded footprint. We’re going to build on this excitement to bring customers the best of both brands, and a whole lot more.”
Brian Webb, Director of National Sales, adds “I’ve spoken to several of our customers who already have moved all their business to Discount Labels and are very pleased with how smooth their transition has been. They are thrilled to have expanded capabilities from one supplier along with more personalized service from a combined customer service team.”
Discount Labels’ will now include its New Albany, IN and Omaha, NE facilities and will provide digital labels, high-quality prime labels, and a wide variety of specialty labels such as durable labels and consecutive number labels in short, medium and long runs.
