The Metro New York Printing Ink Association (MNYPIA) announces that its April meeting will be a tribute to John Hrdlick of INX International, who has been named the 20th recipient of the club’s Anthony Mauriello award.
After starting in the industry in 1974 with Sinclair Valentine Ink Company, Mr. Hrdlick moved to Acme Printing in Milwaukee in 1977 as a third shift worker. Acme later became part of INX Inter-national when it was one of the first North American acquisitions made by Sakata INX. He learned the business from the ground up, transferring from the laboratory in Milwaukee to Charlotte and later to Southampton, PA.
It was in Pennsylvania where Mr. Hrdlick first became a branch manager in the early 1990s. In 1995, he was promoted to Southeast region manager before being named vice president for the same region a year later. Another promotion occurred in 1999, this time as vice president of the Sheetfed division, before he was transferred to INX headquarters in suburban Chicago in 2000.
Over the last decade, Mr. Hrdlick has successfully handled each new challenge. Selected as vice president of the Field Operations division in 2002, he was elected to the INX Board of Directors in 2008, and was elevated to senior vice president of field operations a year later. In 2010, he was handed the responsibility of overseeing INX operations in Canada. In April 2012, Mr. Hrdlick took over as COO, where he now oversees all INX operating facilities in North America. In 2018 he was named President, and in 2019 CEO. John is also the recipient of NAPIM’s prestigious Printing Ink Pioneer Award.
The meeting will be held on Thursday, April 20 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Il Villaggio Restaurant and will include an open bar reception and dinner. The cost to attend is $95. Il Villaggio Restaurant is located at 651 NJ Rt 17 North, North Carlstadt, NJ. Phone: 201-935-7733.
Please reserve your spot today in what will be a very special and fun evening. To be included, simply sign up on the club’s website, which is MNYPIA.com.
