The Target Applications brand began to take shape on its very first business card, built from early notes and sketches.
An opening letter was sent to local producers, introducing Target Applications and its commitment to service.
Continued growth led to an upgrade of the original Apache sprayer, supported by ongoing maintenance and reliable service.
