Our Story
QR Code 42 was born from a simple idea: small businesses deserve access to the same powerful marketing tools as the big players, without the enterprise price tag.
As a family-run operation based in Marquette, Michigan, we understand the challenges that local businesses face. The Upper Peninsula is our home, and we're proud to be a product of the U.P. — where hard work, community, and supporting your neighbors aren't just values, they're a way of life.
We built QR Code 42 to give small business owners an easy, affordable way to connect with their customers, track their marketing efforts, and grow their visibility in an increasingly digital world.
Proudly Made in the U.P.
