Swift Printing is all about a good first impression. The Grand Rapids business has been making a lot of them over the past 75 years.

“It's funny how when we celebrate another birthday, as people were like, oh, getting up there in age, but when it's a business, you're like, 'Oh, sweet. 75 years, that's something really to be celebrated,'” Swift Printing President Jessica Gutowski-Slaydon said.

This family-owned business has made a mark on its neighborhood.

“We’re a commercial print shop. So we do everything from letterhead, envelopes, business cards, large formats, basically, anything you can put ink on paper, we do,” Gutowski-Slaydon added.
