Darrin Schmitt has built American Label Technologies (ALT) into a commanding presence in North America – even if the large brands using his tags never encounter the converter based in Garner, NC, USA.
What began as a small flexo shop in 2015 has grown into something quite successful in a relatively short amount of time. While ALT boasts a strong portfolio of local customers with products such as craft beer and barbecue sauces, the company has made its name in the RFID market. ALT’s RFID business is targeted primarily at industrial applications, although the company will do some retail work, as well.
Schmitt is ALT’s president. He along with Mike Stone, senior sales executive, and 80% of the company’s workforce, came from Carolina Graphic Press, which was also based in Garner. After Carolina Graphic Press was acquired, Schmitt decided he wanted to venture out on his own, and he found several partners along the way.
