Press About Alpine Alpine Labels have been featured in Labels & Labeling Magazine. In an article by Danielle Jerschefske, Alpine’s women owned status in an overwhelmingly male-dominated industry was examined, as well as Alpine’s ability to invest for the future and acquire business in markets seeking work with minority owned companies. From the issue (June/July 2008): “A stable of Mark Andy presses are a key component in Alpine’s strong reputation for providing a quality product in short order. Lehigh calls Alpine ‘a true just-in-time shop,’ and explains, ‘We can have customers call us in the morning – even with a new setup – and get the job out the door the same day, including platemaking.’” You can learn more about Labels & Labeling Magazine at www.LabelsandLabeling.com.

The History of Alpine Packaging At Alpine, we pride ourselves in delivering a personal touch, knowing that friendly, responsive customer service is simply the other side of the coin when it comes to doing the job right. When you look at our history, you’ll understand why we feel that way. Our label printing heritage had its start over half a century ago in founder Bill Johnson’s garage. Bill had acquired a contract with 3M Company to print price marking labels used in Five-and-Dime stores. Bill Johnson then pounded the pavement in sales within a partnership company, where he landed a major tire account. After 15 years in the manufacturing and selling of printed labels and tapes, along with cellophane and poly bags, Bill and Sug Johnson decided to establish their own business: Alpine Packaging, Inc. in 1972. The corporation was built on the once-upon-a-time parking lot of the Vogue Terrace Night Club and the Alpine Hotel. The original 10,000 square foot building was used for the printing of tire labels and converting cellophane bags for the candy industry. In those days, the type was set-up with zinc letters and numbers, and transferred onto a rubber plate. With only two label presses printing tire labels and one cellophane bag machine making candy bags, Alpine got by with a staff of only seven employees, still a big step up from Bill Johnson’s garage. In time, the three Johnson children, Bobby, Jill, and Jan expressed interest in the family business, but Mom and Dad said they had to work somewhere else after completing college, then come into the business. Even so, all three had to start at entry level, learning the business of label making from the ground up. It was a true family affair, with Bill and Sug going home for lunch (only 7 minutes away) and bringing back lunch for the “kids.” All five family members worked together for many years and enjoyed the great times of growing the business. In 2007, Jill and Jan became the current owners of the entire business and today Alpine Packaging is certified as a Woman-Owned corporation.
