No food gets made in Lewisville, but plenty of it passes through. Multiple national food-distribution operations keep branches in the city because its Dallas-Fort Worth address puts them inside the metroplex, and that traffic is exactly why Lewisville needs packaging equipment despite having no manufacturing plant of its own. One of the largest food-distribution companies in the country moved its own operations here in 2000 and filed for bankruptcy three years later; the corridor didn't need that one company to keep going. National distribution branches serving DFW still run out of Lewisville today, drawn by the same address that drew that company two decades ago. Lewisville's other major employers are in banking and mortgage, and its lake gives Texas its largest boat-sales market by volume, but neither changes what the food-distribution branches here need on the receiving end: case-packing and palletizing equipment built to keep pace with product that's always moving, never sitting on a shelf.
Case-packing and palletizing are the pieces of that chain PLAN IT actually supplies. Our automatic case packers handle the case-building and sealing work that keeps product moving through a Lewisville distribution branch, and our Mars Series VFFS machines cover the vertical form fill seal side for co-packers and food processors shipping bagged product into the DFW corridor. A case study on our site covers how one food producer scaled up production with PLAN IT equipment, worth a look if your operation feeds Lewisville's distribution network. We don't run a plant in Lewisville, since the packaging demand here sits with the distributors and processors feeding the metroplex, not a factory floor in the city itself. What we supply is the equipment and support behind those co-packers and processors, covered on our Texas locations page, our food and beverage industry page and our solutions page.
