The COmpanies We Keep

8/15/2024

Ponca City is know for the companies we keep. Over the years, industries and businesses have started, grown and thrived right here. One of those industries is food and agriculture. Think Lopez Dorada Foods, Log10, Cookshack, CPM Bliss and of course, Century Products. All of these companies reflect the Ponca City success story: start small and grow, grow, grow.

Sometimes. that growth is reflected in jobs; sometimes, in production.  For example, when Dorada Foods opened in the old Tyson building in 2011, their job counts were projected to grow from 200 to 400 employees.  Today, Lopez Dorada has over 800 employees and could handle a few more hires if there was available workforce. 


More recently, Century Products relocated from a smaller community.  Century needed a larger building and more land.  FIrst, the D&M building was purchased giving the company some breathing space.  But soon, Century's five employees had doubled and the 70,000+ square foot building wasn't too big; it wasn't big enough.  Century acquired the old Smith Building last year and are now over 30 employees and continue to grow to fit their capacity.  The Century Products new building is over 200,000 square feet.  That is alot of growing room. 

Read more about Century Products Colorful Colaboration here. 

No matter the growth trajectory, Ponca City has a little something for every business.  Just take a tour through the Duke building in the Airport Industrial Park.  Laurence is ready.  Just give the office a call at 580.765.7070 for more information about growing your business in Ponca City.
