Joe Walkup

Joe was born and raised in Nashville, and essentially, in the printing industry. He started working at a print shop at age 14, where he learned the business end-to-end, from running a press to bindery. This experience ignited a passion for the industry and client service. Joe has spent his career in printing, founding IBP—now part of the Shamrock family—with his wife, Teresa, in 2004. His expansive knowledge includes expertise in the transportation (trucking) and banking industries. Joe is loyal, affable, always up for a challenge and relentless at solving problems for his customers, many of whom he’s worked with for 25+ years. A self-purported outgoing introvert, Joe has a great love for UT football, traveling, discovering offbeat hole-in-the-wall restaurants, and above all, his wife and son.
