ID Images acquires Hickman Label
ID Images (IDI), a provider of product identification products, has acquired Tennessee-based Hickman Label. The acquisition marks the fifth add-on investment for IDI since it became a Sole Source Capital portfolio company in August 2021. Terms of the transactions were not disclosed.
Founded in 2016, Hickman Label is a provider of customized label products for the on-demand inkjet market. On-demand inkjet labels enable customers to print small batch, prime labels via their own desktop printers. In addition, Hickman’s robust ordering platform has the unique capability of integrating into its distribution customers’ websites utilizing a plug-in tool. The company sells to a mix of distributors and end users with more than 2,000 active customers across North America.
'We are thrilled to partner with the team at Hickman Label. Hickman’s impressive online ordering platform and expertise in the rapidly growing on-demand label market introduces a compelling new growth avenue for IDI’s platform,' said Scott Sussman, partner and CIO of Sole Source Capital.
'IDI and Hickman Label share similar commitments to the success of their customers and employees. We look forward to working with the Hickman family and the entire Hickman Label team,' said Jeff Fielkow, president and CEO of IDI. 'This acquisition will greatly increase IDI’s omnichannel presence. We look forward to providing Hickman’s products to our customer base while simultaneously extending our product line to Hickman’s customers.'
'IDI is the perfect fit to maximize Hickman Label’s potential,' said Neil and Frank Hickman of Hickman Labels. 'Our unique approach to providing quick turnaround for labels will complement IDI’s resources enabling us to meet an even wider variety of customer needs. We are excited to partner with Jeff and his team.'
