Meet Rick Meyer
President, Owner & Custom Label Specialist
At the center of strategic sales, client partnerships, and brand growth at W.T. Nickell Label Company is President and Owner Rick Meyer. Having been with the organization for 20 years, Rick brings two decades of specialized print industry experience, business development expertise, and dedicated leadership to commercial clients across the nation. Based in Cincinnati, Ohio, Rick leads the company with a firm commitment to high-performance printing standards, competitive pricing, and personalized, responsive service that helps businesses of all sizes stand out on retail shelves and packaging lineups.
Rick’s primary area of expertise lies in strategic sales, product labeling consultation, and high-impact account management. Over his 20-year career with W.T. Nickell Label Company, Rick has developed a deep, practical understanding of custom pressure-sensitive labels, material substrates, adhesive performance, and specialized finishing options. Recognizing that a product’s label serves as its primary visual identity and brand signature, Rick works closely with marketing directors, production managers, and small business owners to engineer custom label solutions that withstand harsh environmental conditions, humidity, refrigeration, and handling while maintaining vibrant, eye-catching color fidelity.
Over 60 Years of Craftsmanship, Modern Digital & Flexographic Printing Mastery
Founded in 1960, W.T. Nickell Label Company is a premier, family-owned, and locally operated enterprise with over six decades of continuous manufacturing excellence. Under Rick’s leadership as President, the firm seamlessly blends time-honored print craftsmanship with state-of-the-art digital and flexographic printing technology. This dual technical approach allows the company to execute high-volume commercial production runs with flexographic speed alongside short-run digital print jobs requiring rapid turnaround times and precision variable-data capabilities.

Driven by a lifelong love for open water, Rick tries to stay on a boat as much as possible during his free time, navigating local waterways and exploring coastal destinations. His love for travel allows him to experience new cultures and landscapes, bringing a fresh, refreshed perspective back to his executive duties at the helm of W.T. Nickell Label Company.
