Johnson & Wales University College of Hospitality Management

As we celebrate 18 years in business, we think back to our first customer, Johnson & Wales University College of Hospitality Management, Providence Rhode Island.  In 1999, Dr. Karen Silva expressed interest in a custom made lapel pin for incoming students of the Hospitality College.

Our business was and still is heavily focused on hospitality.  We customized our medium pineapple pin, adding the letters JWU.  The letters have hand-painted blue behind them and the pin is finished in shiny gold.  These pins are still being ordered each year for incoming students who I am told love them.  Since that time many other education facilities have opted to choose to have their letters placed on our medium and large pineapple pins.

I have learned that the pins have travelled internationally as well.  Johnson & Wales University attracts many International students and the message of Hospitality is truly International.

Over time the Denver and Charlotte campuses have also ordered for their incoming hospitality students.

In addition to the hospitality college, we also have made pins for Johnson & Wales student clubs and organizations.

Michigan State Spartan Lapel Pin

Years ago Frank & I made a custom lapel pin for a Michigan State University student organization.  The pin utilizes our large pineapple pins with their spartan logo inside.  It has been a popular pin and very well received.

Fairleigh Dickinson University, Canada

Fairleigh Dickinson Vancouver Campus Canada ordered a custom pin for their students in their Hospitality programs. Their logo was put into one of our large pineapple pins with a delightful result.  The testimonial for this order is testament to their satisfaction.

Future Food Entrepreneurs

Custom made lapel pins for the Future Food Entrepreneurs, a student organization of Johnson & Wales University Providence Campus, were made using a metal backing; in this case a one inch circle with military clutch back.  Labels were made of their logo and then a clear epoxy finish was applied. The pins were made with a silver finish to compliment the Chefs Coat logo. The result is a beautiful custom made lapel pin that will last for many years.  This process is a great choice for logos that have a great deal of detail or as a cost effective option.

Culinaria Latina

The custom made lapel pins for Culinaria Latina were made using a metal backing, in this case a one inch circle with military clutch back.  Labels were made of their logo and then a clear epoxy finish was applied.  The resulting is a beautiful custom made lapel pin that will last for many years.  This process is a great choice for logos that have a great deal of detail.        

Pastry Arts Club

The Pastry Arts Club ordered a custom made pin many years ago.  At that time we designed a pastry bag, available in many colors.  Now they have narrowed their favorite down to a light green in a shiny gold finish.
