Superior Stamp turns 60 Superior Stamp & Sign Co., 1016 E. Jackson St., Medford, is celebrating its 60th anniversary. Olivia Dupray launched a rubber stamp manufacturer business in 1956 at her home on Holly Street before moving to Bartlett Street in downtown Medford a few years later. In 1986 Linda Dupray, her daughter, bought the business, adding new business lines and changing the name to Superior Stamp & Sign Co. In 2006, the firm was moved out of downtown Medford to make way for The Commons urban renewal project. Three years ago, Dupray bought Northwest Trophy and Engraving, adding trophies, medals and awards to the mix. In 2014, the company acquired Universal Rubber Stamp of Grants Pass. Superior Stamp & Sign continues to make stamps, signs, engravings, laser etchings, acrylic awards and plaques. It also sells products nationwide through its website.

The annual event, hosted by the Performance Excellence Northwest chapter of the Baldrige Performance Excellence Program, recognizes Oregon, Washington and Idaho companies demonstrating exceptional performance. Winners are committed to continuous improvement efforts and serve as models for other companies throughout the Pacific Northwest. The PENW Achievement Awards are modeled after the national Baldrige Criteria for performance excellence. Winners are chosen by a panel of national Baldrige Award examiners and a judge mentor.
