UPS Stores - Locally Owned by the Kramers
Did you know the UPS stores are locally owned, independent franchises? We have had the honor of getting to know the nicest couple who own several of the UPS stores in town.
Lizzy and Harry Kramer grew up in North Carolina and this is a family business. When they are not pouring into their clients and employees, their favorite things to do are boating and traveling.
They are just friendly, kind people who get what hard work and properly serving people means. This is not to be overlooked during an era where being of service seems to be a rarity in our society today. It’s not all about them. I see them really do everything they can to put their customers first.
They’re well-staffed and well-organized. They are philanthropists and have a keen sense for business.
Here are examples of items they’ve printed for us:
The Kramers have invested in equipment to be able to print in house. They can handle large projects, recently printing several thousand, bound booklets for a local event on short notice.
Companies hire the Kramers independent UPS Stores to do on-site crating for large equipment, which is very hard to find in this area. Most UPS stores don’t crate on-site. Kramers are a must call if you’re a large company and want this service for shipping.
Do you need someone to take your vision and put it on paper? Shaun is the in-house graphic designer. He is excellent! He makes logos, posters, designs, and a host of other things you didn’t know you needed- and he’s really good at it! He’s helped several local businesses that we know personally and they love his work too.
