T HE L & H STORY

FROM BASEMENT DREAMS TO B RA ND R E A L I TY:

Chris Heinly, the visionary of L&H founded the company in 1992 as a small signs and graphics provider for local businesses. The company’s origins were as modest as they come, operating out of Chris’s very own basement.

A graduate of the prestigious Pennsylvania School of Arts, Chris understood the power of strong design. This realization infused every aspect of L&H’s operations, setting a precedent for excellence that would guide them through the years to come.

Throughout our years, L&H Companies expanded into a national provider of custom signage, graphics, ornamental metal, and visual solutions. The L&H family grew to encompass more than 90 talented individuals, working hand in hand to bring brands to life through custom fabricated visual solutions.

Through success came expansion, and L&H Companies established a state-of-the-art 75,000 square foot headquarters in Reading, PA as well as satellite offices in Charlotte, NC and St. Petersburg, FL. Throughout the changes and growth, L&H remains true to our roots founded in family and faith.

As the heart and soul of the company, Chris Heinly remains at the helm, serving as the beacon of inspiration, the owner, President, and CEO. Continuing with the next generation, as his son, Quinten Heinly, operates as the VP of Sales, and his daughter, Carmen Heinly, as a Sales Executive.

If ever you find yourself in need of a remarkable partner to bring your brand to life, look no further than L&H Companies. With L&H, you will find more than just a company – you will find a family, eager to transform your vision into a captivating reality.
