About Us

Barrett Enterprises is now 42 years old, founded in June of 1984 by Douglas and Ellen Barrett. This company serves primarily as a foundational enterprise for Mid-State Litho. Mid-State Litho is a full service equipment dealership in the print-finishing industry based in Michigan.

In 2024, Doug and Ellen retired to focus on traveling, enjoying grandchildren, and other personal endeavors. Sarah King and Steven Barrett have taken over as new partners of Barrett Enterprises Inc. With Sarah operating as Treasurer and Steven operating as President, the company has a long future ahead with a new generation of the family handling operations.

Our values are high-quality service and support. A primary focus on proper installation, processes, and training helps our customers keep uptime and reliability high. In the world of production, the number one risk is downtime.

We consider training to be a core element of operational success, because a machine that's not running due to an untrained operator can be just as unproductive as one with a broken part. Customers know they can rely on Barrett Enterprises and Mid-State Litho for high-stress, high-production projects that require exceptional partners.
