For a family-owned company, reaching its 100th anniversary is something special. Braden Sutphin Ink Company, headquartered in Cleveland, OH, recently celebrated its 100th year in business.
In celebration of the milestone, the company hosted employees, suppliers and customers along with family and friends at their Baltimore, MD facility, and then again in Cleveland, OH.
From its early days as the Braden Ink Company to today, Braden Sutphin Ink has come a long way from its beginnings in 1913, when Jim Braden started the Braden Ink Company, a letterpress ink specialist, on the fifth floor of the Vulcan building on St. Clair Avenue in Cleveland.
Al Sutphin was the company’s first employee, as a general worker, and he eventually purchased 100% control of the company in the 1920s, with the name of the company switching to The Braden Sutphin Ink Company.<
