A Spokane food processor scaling up a grain or dried-goods line eventually needs packaging equipment that keeps pace once volume outgrows a single shift. Spokane's economy grew out of natural resources, mining, logging, and agriculture, and the city became a rail and shipping hub moving goods between mining country and surrounding farmland. That legacy shows up today in a manufacturing base still built around wood and food processing, printing and publishing, and primary metal refining and fabrication. An aluminum smelter just outside the city weathered a labor strike in 1998-99 and a bankruptcy in 2002. It never stopped running. A Fortune 1000 forest-products company keeps its headquarters in Spokane, evidence of how long industrial manufacturing has anchored the local economy.
Our Mars Series VFFS machines bag grain, flour, and other dried food products at the volumes a scaled-up Spokane processor needs, while our automatic case packers carton finished product for shipment out along the same rail lines that built the city's economy. You've got grain and flour moving through a scaled-up line; we've got the baggers and casers that keep the rail cars filled behind it. Our Washington location page and food and beverage industry page walk through the regional market, our vertical form fill seal category page and automatic case packers category page lay out machine specifications, and our solutions page breaks down what it takes to get a line sourced, installed, and running. We don't keep a storefront in Spokane, only a direct line to sourcing, integration, and service across the Inland Northwest.
