My partner needed a custom label printer for spice mixes she sells at the farmer’s market

My partner is from the middle east and is the descendent of a long line of artisan spice makers going back several centuries.

Her family had access to the richest and freshest ingredients imaginable, something that is lost with commercial factory farming.

She still creates spice blends with some of the raw spices that her family sends her overseas from back home. One morning I told her that she should try selling one of her amazing spice blends. Aside from apparent online commerce, our county is also home to more than 2 amazing farmer’s markets if you go from city to city. I told our partner that I would help her with the booth every Sunday if she was successful with her spices. Even though she expressed utmost skepticism with our confidence in her company venture, she reluctantly agreed. I don’t assume she was expecting the immediate positive response that she got from the surrounding community. I was buying bulk glass jars off websites like Amazon and using a basic label maker to put the names of each spice blend on the outside. At some point I got the method of designing a brand label for our partner’s spices and purchasing a custom label printer to create them for each jar. I used an unexpected work bonus to purchase the new custom label printer and surprised our partner one day when I brought it home with me when I returned from work. She was absolutely ecstatic and all of us both started toiling on a brand label in photoshop in our freetime. It was a fun interest for us to share and now her company is growing further as her branding receives exposure in both the local and digital marketplaces.
