Founded in 1920 by Harry C. Bradshaw, Bradshaw Engraving & Awards is 3rd generation and family owned and operated. They started many sports leagues in NJ and established the relationship between leagues and how awards were used. Harry C. Bradshaw pioneered one of the first and only manufacturing facilities in NJ for producing medals, medallions and emblems.

In 1958, Harry’s son, William D. Bradshaw, took over the business from his father and over the years expanded the production and engraving facilities into one of the largest in NJ.

John S. Bradshaw, William's son, was introduced to the family business at the age of 10. In 1984, John introduced promotional products to the company's core lines of business, enabling us to better serve the varied needs of our clients. In 1987, John opened a high-end engraving store at the World Trade Center Boston. The family tradition continues today, with John formally taking the reins from his father in 1992.
