Gold Medal Expands in Response to Growing Sales

Cincinnati, Ohio   Here we grow again. More and more people around the world are discovering the gold in Gold Medal Products, creating an increased demand for concession equipment and the corresponding supplies. Greater sales and worldwide growth drove the need to expand Gold Medal’s flavor production. In response, the company has expanded its flavor department and renovated some of its facilities. The addition contains 10 more flavor bays, a large capacity elevator, three loading docks, and space for future growth.

The projects will be completed June 18th and mark the third time the company has expanded since opening its current facility in 1997. With this two-level, 13,000+ square foot addition, the Medallion Drive location will be more than 438,000 square feet.

Also, in recognition of new product development and the company’s manufacturing innovations, Gold Medal recently received a Manny Award from Cincy Magazine. J.C. Evans, Chairman, accepted the award along with other senior staff members at the June event. Gold Medal was nominated by a community partner and an independent panel representing various business sectors conducted the judging. For more information on the award, go to www.cincymagazine.com.
