What is Twio?
Twio, originally established in Maryland in 1982 as The Write Image, has evolved from a home-based business into a multi-location enterprise specializing in custom printing and design. Founded by Toni, the company initially focused on stationery for medical practices and expanded to cater to social and commercial clients, emphasizing personalized service. A significant pivot occurred in 2001 when Toni and her son Josh launched an online printing business with real-time proofing capabilities, complemented by a physical retail presence in Salt Lake City, Utah. The company's innovative preview technology, developed by Josh, has also attracted interest from other manufacturers seeking website fulfillment solutions. Twio operates with a dual focus on its retail operations, managed by Josh and his wife Miriam, and its technological development.
