Yazoo Mills, a large family-owned and operated manufacturer of paper tubes and cores, has reached a new milestone. The company is celebrating its historical mark of 120 years in business and continued growth.
The company began as a yarn and textile mill in Yazoo City, MS, USA, and in 1902, it began on a growth trajectory that has to led to becoming the largest privately-owned paper tube and core manufacturer in the country. In its early years, Yazoo produced its own cores to wind rope and twine. After a move to New York in 1928, Hanover in 1936, and a change to ownership in 1961, Yazoo dedicated all manufacturing to the paper tube and core industry.
To this day, Yazoo continues to manufacture 100% recycled products and is the supplier of choice for a wide range of industries, ranging from tapes, labels and flexible packaging, to plastics, papers, films, foams, wires, reels, and more.
In its 120th year, the company continues to grow with the latest expansion of its second plant in Hanover, PA. Completed in the spring of 2022, the 60,000 square feet of additional manufacturing and warehouse space comes in response to the growing demand for the company’s products and services. Yazoo Mills now operates two state-of-the-art facilities totaling 300,000 square feet. In addition, the company has begun to expand its production capacity with the installation of several automated machines and increased its workforce to more than 200 employees.
According to the company, Yazoo Mills is proud to have reached this momentous milestone, and it has dedicated this success to its customers, partners, and all employees – past and present. Over the course of the year, Yazoo Mills will pay homage to this unyielding support and years in business through a company hardback history book, commemorative logos, updated facility signage, events and tradeshows, and employee appreciation activities throughout the year.
Yazoo Mills looks forward to continued success and many more years of offering a quality product made in the USA, it says.
