A banner business

After successful careers separately in retail and manufacturing, Maureen and Dennis Criscuolo are trying out their business acumen together.

In 2005, the Germantown couple kicked off an Internet-based retail operation from their home selling flags with a $12,000 investment.

Then, last year, on a tip from their main supplier -- and with $185,000 of their own money -- they bought an existing flag and banner business at 4550 Summer which gave them a storefront.

The Criscuoloes have invested another $35,000 improving both the retail side of the house as well as equipment for custom work. A small portion of existing space is about to be converted to display the varieties of custom flags and banners Flagcenter.com LLC can produce.
