One of their very first customers, the University of Chicago, is still a client today. The success of M&G is a true testament to the realization of the American Dream.
Josephine pursued and received Women Business Enterprise (WBE) and Business Enterprise Program (BEP) certifications for M&G, opening doors and creating opportunities that helped the company gain traction and grow. In 2023, M&G received accreditation from the WBENC, enhancing its reputation as a trusted, woman-led provider of printing and marketing services.
