Morton Buildings is bigger than I realized. After seeing this office next to our hotel in Wyoming, I had to look it up. They employ somewhere between 1,000-3,000 people at over 100 retail offices and 7 manufacturing plants in 36 states. Not bad.

@PeoriaIllinoisan :
About a month ago I was in the middle of nowhere southern Missouri and saw a massive MB building and thought "Damn, that's pretty impressive for a small Morton company". Guess they aren't so small afterall. Had no idea!

@mypeez : And I'll bet a majority of them are MBs. Morton has a HUGE facility in an industrial park not far from their little plant downtown.
I think that Morton had alot more industry than most people realize,

Without looking it up, does anyone know what MB actually started as? A hint, it wasn't buildings. Emoticon

@kraziebill : I do not. Not being sarcastic, but I'd have to guess something AC and farming related?
