Greg Forsyth – Strathcona High School

Category:

Friesens and Strathcona have a history going back nearly 50 years. I have been involved with yearbook at Scona since I began at the school 13 years ago, initially as an assistant coordinator and I took over the coordinator position 3 years ago. In this time, it has been a pleasure working with Nabil and […]

Susan Evenson and Jason Benias – Bison Transport

Category:

From start to finish, Friesens was always professional and met our every need. When considering who we should use to print Bison’s 50th anniversary book, we kept hearing, “Consider using Friesens, they are the best!” So of course, we reached out to Friesens and it was Carey Kehler who responded. Carey took us through the […]

Thomas Craig, Clovis High School

Category:

Having advised our large school’s yearbook for over 25 years, I’ve visited multiple printing plants. It is clear why Friesens is able to produce a superior product for less money: financial and personnel management, craftsmanship, and resources. In other words, they earned my school’s business the same way any healthy business relationship should.

Vern Phillips – Family History Book

Charlie Lieberman – American Society of Cinematographers

Category:

As a member of the American Society of Cinematographers, I offered to create a book of historical photographs as part of our Centennial Year celebration. It was my first experience in the publishing universe and Friesens was supremely supportive in guiding me through the entire process. They were patient with my neophyte questions and their […]

Lavona Susinski, Shirley Kalyniuk – Ewanyshyn Family History

Category:

Friesens just published our book that updated the Ewanyshyn Family History. We found the staff very knowledgeable and professional from concept to conclusion, flexible and innovative when presented with a challenge. Friesens offers a vast array of paper quality, covers, and bindings.  Our one disappointment was not knowing, far enough in advance, the number of […]

We were very pleased with the 400 copies of the photo book you recently printed for our church’s centennial. The staff were very professional and always courteous. They kept us informed throughout the entire process; promptly answered our questions and were very accommodating. A pleasure to work with. We highly recommend your printing services.

Albert Siemens – Whisky Sales and Hotel Tales of the Mennonite West Reserve 1873-1916

Category:

I would like to thank you and Friesen’s for helping to get my thoughts on the subject of my book from written word to printed book- a step which I approached with great trepidation but which you personally and others at Friesen’s smoothly facilitated. What I received was the high-quality product which I had sought. It […]

Greg Marshall – U of Western Mustangs/London “A 50 Year History of Western Football”

Category:

Our group received outstanding service from start to finish from Friesens.  The finished quality of our book was A1.  The “hands on” involvement throughout the process made it easy for us, especially because we had no previous experience printing a book.

Janel Schmitz – Bank of North Dakota

Category:

Friesens was an incredible business partner to print our book,  “The Bank of North Dakota: From Surviving to Thriving.” For us, a project like this took on a life of its own. The importance of documenting the first 100 years of the only state-owned bank in the country felt a bit overwhelming at times. We […]
