Tri-Gen Tubes is a local manufacturer of paper tubes and cores. Tubes are used as shipping containers for items or paperwork of various types. Cores are used by customers to spool film, labels, lottery tickets and more.
Tri-Gen has grown from one employee to 16. Company sales are up more than 50 percent since 2003. CEO Lynn Ramsey says an expansion could be next for this certified woman owned business. She's looking to buy a new facility with 25,000 square feet as the company enjoys a growth mode.
