Our History

The History of Star Business Machines

---

Krebs Business Machines was established in 1983 by former president Marty Krebs, an experienced service technician for Sentry Insurance. Marty identified a need in the community for a full-service office machine repair shop and started his business from home. From these humble beginnings, Krebs has evolved in tandem with technological advancements in document management.

With the advent of new technologies came the need to incorporate new services. Early on, repair services expanded to encompass a variety of different types of equipment. Seizing opportunities in toner cartridge re-manufacturing, Krebs began offering substantial savings to customers by installing a state-of-the-art toner re-manufacturing facility. The unique ability to offer printer repair along with toner remanufacturing enabled us to provide a service-backed guarantee with toner cartridges, surpassing our competitors' offerings.

Since Krebs was conceived, the industry has gone through a number of changes. Krebs evolved with these changes from digital document management and color multifunction devices, to networking and cloud computing.

Ever-evolving, Krebs came under the ownership of Cory and Anastasia Sosnovske in January 2016. Purchasing the business with a more modern company vision in their sights, they decided to change the name to Star Business Machines Inc..

At Star Business Machines, our technicians are factory-trained and certified to provide professional, timely repairs on all of the equipment we sell. We also service the brands that our competitors sell. Star is also an authorized warranty repair center for Copystar, Kyocera, Samsung, HP, Brother, Fellows, Acroprint, and many more. Repairs can be done both in-shop and on-site.
