About Us
Garrido USA traces its roots back to 1988 with the founding of Garrido Import and Export by Diego Jose Garrido. In 1989, after successfully sourcing a Heidelberg printing press for a client, Diego identified a significant gap in the market for high-quality, rebuilt printing machinery. This discovery led the company to focus on serving the Graphic Arts Industry as Garrido Printing Equipment Inc.
As the business grew, Garrido expanded into distributing American and European finishing equipment, with a mission to provide cost-effective, high-quality solutions for process automation. Diego’s global search for innovation allowed the company to consistently meet evolving customer needs. In 1995, recognizing demand for improved composition notebook production, Garrido Manufacturing was established and introduced the ST-100 sewing and taping machine.
Over time, Garrido evolved alongside the industry. While the demand for rebuilt machinery declined, sales of new equipment steadily increased. In 2006, the company launched the brand, Advantage Machinery, manufactured under Garrido’s strict quality standards. A year later, Garrido further diversified by adding a full packaging division.
Today, Garrido USA remains a proud, family-owned business specializing in end-of-line packaging solutions. Our expertise includes:
- horizontal automatic shrink wrapping
- bagging
- bundling
- e-commerce equipment
With a nationwide distribution network and a strong commitment to customer service, Garrido USA delivers equipment that combines affordability, advanced technology, and exceptional quality—built to withstand the most demanding production environments.
Beyond providing reliable machinery, we are recognized for our dedication to service and support. At Garrido USA, our mission is simple: help our clients improve efficiency, reduce costs, and achieve professional-grade packaging performance every time.

Over the past few years we have purchased several pieces of equipment from Garrido that have greatly improved our overall packaging efficiency. The equipment is extremely durable and high quality. We were also very impressed with the customer service and the technical support provided to ensure that the equipment was implemented into our process successfully. Garrido is so much more than an equipment vendor with exceptional products and service, they are partners with a shared vision of continual improvement through automation. The owners really care about their customers, and work very hard to build a strong foundation for future success. Thank you Garrido for your continued support, we are looking forward to the future!
