Case Study: Herr Foods Inc. achieves increased employee engagement and streamlined internal communication with The Marlin Company

Employee survey reveals winning formula for effective digital signage content

Herr Foods, a family‑owned snack manufacturer in Nottingham, PA, needed a better way to reach more than 500 production workers across three shifts and multiple sites. After installing three Marlin digital signage screens in breakrooms, HR found engagement lagged: employees wanted content that felt more personal, varied and entertaining.

Working with The Marlin Company, HR used its SaaS digital‑signage platform and segmented screens to combine work updates with sports feeds, employee recognition, “Throwback Thursday” photos and onboarding welcomes. The mix boosted viewership and morale, turned the screens into the primary source of company news, and has driven a company‑wide rollout so local and corporate messaging reach employees and visitors alike.
