Family Owned and Operated Adpro Imprints, Inc. Provides Unparalleled Personal Service, the Highest Quality Printed Apparel & Promotional Products, and the Latest in “Green” Printing Technology
“It’s important to recognize the changing needs of our customers and be willing to grow to better serve them and the community,” said Adpro Imprints co-owner, Peter Demaree, Jr. “In 2010 we improved our computer and database systems, experimented with environmentally safe printing and cleaning products and are looking to expand our operations in 2011. For us, 2010 was a very good year.”
Part of what made 2010 such a good year was upgrading to a new computer system. “Our new computer system is called Shop Works and it is a database driven system that was designed by professionals in our industry,” said co-owner Anthony “Luis” Lugo. “Our order entry is faster and more efficient and with more data storage we can customize more effectively. Ultimately, Shop Works allows us to provide our customers with a much higher level of service and that’s what we constantly strive to do.”
A family owned and operated business for the last 28 years, Adpro Imprints is a full service marketing company specializing in corporate and casual apparel, promotional products, screen printing, embroidery, full custom graphic design, digital printing, offset printing, business stationary, signs & banners, vehicle lettering, greeting cards and full color digital copies.
“Not only do we want to provide our customers with great products and services, we also want our employees to have a safe and comfortable work place and do our part to keep the environment and our community safe,” said Demaree. “To that end we have been making the transition to becoming a completely “green” business.” To date, Adpro Imprints uses only soy and plant based cleaning products and solvents. “We use a water based adhesive in printing that can literally go right down the sink without hurting the environment and we have been experimenting with water based inks,” added Demaree. Currently the printing industry as a whole is working on becoming 100% phthalate free which is a chemical derived from oil and used in ink.
“Even though we are always looking at new ways to grow with our customers, it’s important to us to remain small enough to provide the individual service they have come to expect,” said Demaree. “It is what makes us stand apart from the crowd, and what helps us remain at the forefront of an increasingly competitive marketplace. We now employ 15 full & part time employees who are truly family. The majority of our work is done in house so that we have complete control over every aspect of a project.” Over the years Adpro has built a solid reputation for quality work, excellent service and guaranteed delivery. Any outsourced work only goes to prescreened, top quality vendors who meet Adpro’s standards.
“Our company has been utilizing Adpro for almost three years,” said Crystal James, ILS Manager of R4 Incorporated. “They have provided us with short sleeved & long sleeved t-shirts, polo shirts, fleeces, coveralls (hot & cold weather), coats, gloves, hats, and all types of other promotional items. During this time we have received nothing but the best customer service. The staff at Adpro goes above and beyond to meet the needs of R4 Incorporated. No matter when we call they are willing and able to get what we need from their vendor(s) and embroider them in a very expeditious manner. Our employees in Iraq and Afghanistan love the quality of work that they provide and constantly ask for the link to ADPRO so they can order other items on their own. Adpro, thank you for providing such excellent service to our company."
"I have worked with Peter and the Adpro Imprints team now on a number of occasions,” said John Braun of Signature Safety, LLC. “From t-shirts, to embroidered golf shirts, to hardhat decals, everything was completed in the highest quality, in a timely manner, and with friendly service. Not to mention, the prices were great! Not only do I plan on continuing to use Adpro, I have already recommended them to a number of colleagues who have since begun using Adpro as their exclusive provider, based on their satisfaction with the service and product. "
"Over the past 5 years, ADPRO Imprints has been providing my retail business with fine quality, t-shirts, sweatshirts, caps, signs and more,” said Kay Harris of Asbury Galleria. “In addition to their great printed work, the quality of their embroidery work is excellent as well. I couldn’t be more satisfied. Their prices are great and their work is always delivered on time. I’ll never need to look elsewhere. Even more importantly, I don’t think you will find another supplier who can provide the level of personalized attention given by Luis, Peter and all of the staff from the front office to back office. Thank you, Adpro. I am looking forward to many more years of doing business with you. Keep those t- shirts coming!”
“We take on any size job,” said Luis. “Whether it’s one t-shirt or 50,000, we treat each order with special care. We like to consider ourselves a marketing one stop shop. We want to help you promote your business. Our in house graphic designer, Jessica Sharon, is probably one of the best designers in the business.” Jim Pagano of JF Kiely Construction Company commented, "Pete, Luis and their staff are professionals in every sense of the word. No matter what the design requirements, quantities, or material, Adpro delivers. Their service and turn around time is exceptional. I have been ordering my shirts from Adpro for the past 4 years and will continue to do so."
Both Demaree and Lugo say their success is also due to the support of their families. Demaree resides in Ocean with his wife, Cheryl , 4 year old daughter Madison and 1 year old son, Weiland. Lugo resides in Long Branch with his wife, Ruth, sons, 8 year old Michael and 2 year old Dominic and 5 year old daughter, Naomi.
“Adpro has been a fixture in our community for three decades, founded on the concept of continually exceeding our customer's expectations,” said Demaree. “We do that by constantly improving our systems to deliver the best product at the most competitive price.”
