Johnny Hawes
Johnny Hawes began his career in the 70′s as a Chemical Engineer and worked in the oil and gas industry for almost 20 years. He then formed Hawes Enterprises, Inc. in 1991 and started a brick and mortar printing business.
After selling the printing store Johnny started Foilwerks, a home based business that specialized in foil enhanced printing of various types of printed pieces for other businesses. The Foilwerks name is still used and is still part of the Hawes Enterprises, Inc. system but its focus has changed. Foilwerks now concentrates primarily on the awards business and uses sublimation printing on aluminum to produce the majority of its awards today.
Johnny currently splits his time between Foilwerks and new product development activities, such as instructional DVDs on various topics.
