The Kirksville Area Chamber of Commerce Business Spotlight
The Chamber has a business card drawing at the Business After Hours event most months. If your card is drawn, you will be invited to submit an article to this newsletter profiling your business. This is an excellent opportunity to get your message out to more than 600 people who receive this publication.
Lone Pine Embroidery and Design has been in business for over ten years. We use modern computer and embroidery equipment to produce the best in machine embroidery. We specialize in business logos and also have a large clientele of military and veterans organizations. We also provide a line of baby and wedding gifts consisting of throws or blankets personalized with dates, names, and, for babies, birth data. We will be happy to come to you to discuss options, and we pick up and deliver throughout Adair County. We ship to customers from California to New York, and are proud that many of our local clients are members of the Kirksville Area Chamber. Although our focus is on embroidery, we also provide silk screening, advertising specialty, and other products. Is your business name on your shirt? If not, call us today at 627-0753.
