History

[edit]

Myron Corp. (Myron) was founded by Mike and Elaine Adler in 1949. After purchasing a sewing machine and one heat-sealing device, the Adlers started what is now a thriving mail-order business. Originally, Myron specialized in the imprinting and personalization of pocket calendars, pens, and a variety of business gifts.

In the 1950s Myron moved from its New York City location to a three-car garage in Englewood, New Jersey. With the help of a handful of employees, products were distributed to nearly 2,000 customers.

Expansion

[edit]

After the initial success, Myron moved from Englewood to Teaneck, where it remained for four years. In 1968, the business was transferred to a one-story building in Maywood, New Jersey which was later expanded to meet the needs of the growing organization. In 1980, work began on a new complex on Maywood Avenue, which was completed and occupied by 1982. This new facility contained more than 100,000 square feet of space.[citation needed]

Howard Wu is the current CEO, who joined in 2020 with extensive digital transformstion experiences from companies like Zulily, Google, Amazon, T-Mobile and HTC.
