Framerica is a company that was founded in 1969 by co-founders Gene Eichner and Gordon Van Vechten on Long Island, New York. Despite their young age and limited industry knowledge at the time, both founders contributed $2000 each as startup capital and shared a vision of expanding their business. They believed that providing innovative, high-quality products and exceptional customer service would be the key to their success. Over the course of 50 years, Framerica has built strong relationships with customers, employees, and vendor-partners, which they consider to be the most rewarding aspect of their journey.
One of Framerica’s notable achievements was the invention of profile-wrapped picture frame moulding in 1979. This innovation was a significant improvement over existing options in the industry and marked a turning point for the company.
As the years passed, Framerica expanded into other industries and implemented a marketing strategy that helped establish the brand’s presence. Elaborate trade show displays, contests, and clever advertising, including the industry’s first televised commercial on shows like Good Morning America, contributed to the company’s recognition. This marketing effort paid off, as Framerica became a recognized brand known for the merit, value, and quality of its products.
Despite its growth and success, Framerica has remained committed to its core values and continues to operate with passion to help its customers succeed. The company has expanded to multiple locations and invested in state-of-the-art facilities with unmatched production capacity. Framerica is proud to be known as “America’s Favorite” by many of its customers and stakeholders.
