Vickery
Tape & Label Company is centrally located in
the Midwest in the small town of Peru,
Indiana. It was founded in 1943 by Marion
D. Vickery. At that time, the business was
a machine shop known as Vickery Machine
Company. One day Marion was approached by a
customer who had a contract with the U.S.
Government to build wire harnesses for
airplanes for the war effort. His customer
indicated that they needed a better way to
tag wire harnesses than they were currently
using. The idea of printing on tape was
suggested. Marion Vickery, being the
entrepreneur type, went to work and built a
machine that would do just that, print on
tape. Soon he found his business flooded
with orders for printed tape, as well as,
much interest in his new tape printing
machine. At that point, the business
changed its name to Vickery Tape & Machine
Company. He built several tape printing
presses and printed thousands of rolls of
tape in the years to come. As the printing
end of the business continued to grow,
several family members joined the company to
help out. Eventually, labels and rubber
stamps were added to the product line and
the business name was changed to Vickery
Tape & Label Company. Today, Vickery Tape &
Label Company continues to be a family owned
and operated business where personalized
service is not a thing of the past.
