EDM was formed in July of 1983 by H. Richard Hallman and other former employees of National
Electronic Computer Supplies, Inc. (NECS). NECS was a manufacturer of computer tabulating cards,
better known as IBM data processing cards. Originally incorporated as Southeastern
Data Media, Inc., EDM changed it's name to Electronic Data Magnetics, Inc. in July of 1983 when
Amico Inc. was acquired.
Corporate Bio
Beginning In 1985 EDM began a product diversification program in anticipation of a declining
market for Tabulating Cards. The diversification program included plans to produce other Specialty
Card Products, Business Products and Magnetic Stripe Products. In 1986, EDM acquired the assets of
Magnetronics International, LTD. This purchase from Vanier Graphics Inc. gave EDM its' entrance
into markets using magnetically striped products.
EDM has over the years incorporated and/or acquired many procedures, philosophies, personnel, test
equipment and presses in an effort to achieve state of the art methodologies and production
capabilities. We feel these acquisitions have enabled EDM to provide our customers with the
service and products that they demand and deserve. All this is coupled with a research and
development department, which is invaluable in regard to penetration of new markets and
providing answers to complex issues. EDM has in many cases educated our customers with regard
to realistic and accurate specifications. EDM has even helped rewrite and modify customers’
specifications in order to provide more reliable and workable products. EDM would love an
opportunity to work with your company and provide you with the best service and products in
the market today.
