Adventure Advertising, based in Rockport, has purchased the building and property at 191 Park Street in Rockland and will move its Rockland print and copy business there, as well as expand apparel production.  The building was purchased from Jason Butman of Rockland. Butman has used the property for his plumbing and heating business as well as Wicked Redemption, which he owns with Jeanette Knowlton. 

“This is a great  opportunity for Adventure,” said Dale Landrith, co-owner of Adventure Advertising, in a news release. “We are thankful for the amazing support that we have received from the local area, and we have outgrown the space in our Rockport office. We will be moving our current print and copy shop, located in Rockland, into the new space, and we will be moving our apparel business from our Rockport office into the new Rockland space as well.  This will allow us to add additional equipment, and have the space to have a more organized and fun environment for our customers and employees. “

The Rockport office will stay in its current location, and will have more room for the company’s sign and vehicle graphics production and installations, as well as customer meetings and offices, said Landrith.

“ Our customers will be able to come into either location to order products and talk with our team about what they need,” he said. “We want to be able to provide a great working environment and great customer service. We hope that the new location will create both.” 

191 Park Street is the home of Wicked Redemption, and was formerly the Puffin Stop convenience store.  The redemption center will continue to operate at that location and occupy a portion of the building and parking lot.  Adventure Advertising will begin the process of moving, but will keep the current locations operating as normal until the new location is ready to open. It hopes to have the new store fully operational and ready for customers by early fall. 

“We are extremely excited to be making this move,” said Alyssa Landrith, Adventure Advertising co-owner. “As we have grown, our team has done an amazing job at adapting and finding a way to get everything done without enough space. Our customers have been very understanding of the busy flurry they witness when they visit, and we’re looking forward to opportunities the additional space will give us for taking care of customers needs and continuing to do our best to provide everyone with a great experience.  We are so thankful for our team, and we are excited to reimagine both work spaces with them.” 

Adventure Advertising is owned and operated by Alyssa and Dale Landrith.  The company was purchased in 2019 from long-time owners, Joseph and Virginia Ryan. In 2020, Adventure Advertising also purchased Crowning Touch Embroidery to add additional custom apparel options for local customers. In 2021, Adventure purchased Good Impressions print and copy shop from Dana Start and added its Rockland, Maine location where Good Impressions had operated previously.   Since 2019, Adventure Advertising has continued to add  local jobs increasing its team from 8 in 2019 to 14 at the present time.

Adventure Advertising produces signs, vehicle graphics and wraps, custom apparel, (including embroidery, screen printing, and direct to garment apparel printing) copy and printing services, large format printing, trade show displays, website development, mailings, engraving, and many more services and products. They are currently located at 29 Commercial Street in Rockport, and 33 Park Street in Rockland.
