Venture Plastics Inc. Celebrates 50th Anniversary with Open House & Presentation of Key to City to
Ohio Pen/10031318

WARREN, Ohio - OhioPen -- Newton Falls, OH: Kenneth M. Groff founded Venture Plastics Inc. in October of 1969 in a small plant in Warren, Ohio. Today, Venture Plastics celebrated 50 years of continuous business with an open house for customers, suppliers and various members of the local community. Founder Ken Groff was presented the Key to the City by the Mayor of Newton Falls while many of his long-time employees participated in the event.

"It continues to amaze me that I am an owner of a successful custom injection molding company that has thrived for 50 years," stated Ken Groff. "I got my start in the late 1950s in the estimating department of a producer of rubber and plastic parts. In 1969, I had the opportunity to launch a company to mold a clothes steamer for a specific customer and I jumped for it. However, this project was full of challenges that almost closed our company for good. Luckily, I found a way out and swore I would never let my company become dependent on a single project ever again. I know this is the biggest reason we are standing in this first-rate plastics molding plant today 50 years later."
