100 Best Places To Work In Oregon

Stamp-Connection ranks 17th in the "2009 100 Best Companies to work for in Oregon".

"Stamp-Connection is proud to have made the list in 2009 and hopes that this is the first of many years to come." says John Clark, founder and President of the company. "Our employees play the biggest part in our success story. They will always come first."

Each year since 1994, Oregon Business magazine has been proud to present the 100 Best Companies to Work for in Oregon. The aim of the project is to recognize and celebrate Oregon companies for their commitment to creating great places for their employees to work.

What is interesting is that Stamp-Connection is one of the very few manufacturing companies on the list, made up largely of professional services, with a strong showing from law and staffing firms, finance, construction, technology and marketing/communications.

Maybe just a little proof that our industry has a bright future.

Manufacturers of the Year Converge on Grays Harbor

Three past and present winners of the manufacturer of the year award met in Aberdeen, Washington for a trip through the past and discussion of the future. 

Ron, Dave & Ken Windell of Grays Harbor Stamp Works, in its 93rd year, invited John Clark and Derek Persons of Stamp-Connection along with Tony Pezze of United Marking to tour their facilities and show them that the same craftsmanship that brought success to past generations of stamp makers is still viable in today's high tech world.

"Meeting another company that takes pride in their work such as Grays Harbor inspires us to do better." says John Clark of Stamp-Connection. "And the success that all of our companies have shown during these tough economic times proves that a quality product and exceptional customer service still matters above all else."

The night started with a tour of the manufacturing process that Grays Harbor uses to turn out high quality rubber stamps and engraved products. 

The equipment, some well over 50 years, is still going strong and is used on a daily basis. 

"You can't help but to feel proud working on the same benches and using the same equipment that our father and grandfather used to build the business." says Ken Windell. "The rubber stamp industry has been good to our family."

Dater rubber stamps are extremely popular at the beginning of the year, as many companies update outdated date stamps.  But what about your number rubber stamping tasks?

Well there is a stamp for that too!

Not only that, but our line of Ideal automatic number machines feature a lustrous chrome finish and metal parts that will ensure that your automatic number machine will function well and will look great for years.
