A little bit about our history

Proud of our past. Focused on our future.

When William H. Brady founded Brady Corporation in 1914, he never could have imagined the impact his small sign painting company would have on the world. More than 100 years later, Brady Corporation is thriving as a leader in printing, identification and safety around the world. But our global presence has deep roots. Bill Brady Jr. took the company from its humble origins with the advent of wire marker cards for industrial identification, to going public (NYSE: BRC) in 1984.

Today, the 4th generation of the family remains an integral part of Brady’s leadership, serving on our Board of Directors. And while we have facilities in more than 30 countries, we are proud that our corporate headquarters have remained in Wisconsin since our company was founded.

The values that Brady was founded on live on today in our commitment to our customers, our employees and our communities.
