Advantage Emblem & Screen Printing Expands

Advantage Emblem & Screen Printing has seen nearly nonstop growth since Nathan Bentley started the business at age 19.

Now, 24 years later, it's poised for another growth spurt.

The company is nearing completion of a $1.2 million expansion at its Duluth Airpark facility that promises to boost its annual sales from $8 million to $10 million.

A 12,000-square-foot addition was built last year, increasing the facility to 40,000 square feet. The last of the finishing work should be done in about two weeks.

His company offers full-service custom embroidery, emblems and screen printing, with customers around the country.
