Industries
We don't make things, we craft them.
Benton County is home to a variety of industry sectors including injection molding, plastics, welding, tool and die, dry goods, trucking, agricultural and more. These industries support globally recognized organizations like Nissan, BMW, Whirlpool, John Deere, Apple and the Major League Baseball. Benton County's strategic location and broad skill base are just some of the reasons that these businesses have chosen to locate here.
Carhartt
As a longtime provider of rugged apparel, Carhartt expanded to Benton County over two decades ago. The 85,000-square-foot manufacturing facility is one of the largest in the county. It recently completed a major renovation of its shipping docks to enhance the logistics and shipping capabilities. The Carhartt team in Camden is dedicated to improving the Benton County community by developing new ways to produce less waste, starting a recycling program and being actively involved with the United Way.
Jones Plastic & Engineering Corporation
A world leader in plastic injection molding, Jones Plastic & Engineering Corporation supplies design, products and services to the appliance, outdoor products, medical supplies, electronics and automotive industries. The company chose Benton County because of its location in the automotive corridor of the Southern United States. Having experienced major growth since its 2012 expansion, Jones Plastic is completing a $4.5 million expansion of its current facility to accommodate growing demand and make room for new equipment.
Dunbarton Door and Entry Systems
A manufacturer of customized entry solutions, Dunbarton has been in business since the 1940s. It brought its satellite facility to Benton County because of its central location and space for further expansion. Dunbarton doors can be found in both residential and commercial buildings including SunTrust Park, home of the Atlanta Braves, and the Apple complex buildings. Since Dunbarton's customers are all over the United States and Canada, Benton County was a strategic choice for shipping its products out of the warehouse quickly.
