History
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
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.
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.
