Lodge Manufacturing held a ground breaking ceremony last month to celebrate the development of a new foundry and distribution warehouse.
Lodge is the oldest family-owned cookware company in the country and is celebrating 120 years of cast iron cookware production. The latest expansion to the foundry in 2015 increased production by 50% and the new facility will add 2 new production lines to increase production by another 75%. The growing interest in seasoned cast iron cookware has made this expansion paramount to the company's ability to meet the demand for their cookware.
