Cox Story Proves Era Of
Small Entrepeneur Still Exists
PITTSBURGH-George Cox,
president of Cox Steel Rule
Die Company, is a black busi
nessman who is proving that
the era of the small entrepre
neur still exists. His hard work
and business acumen have
carved the base for a growing
and successful company.
Cox is a small manufacturer
of dies and die-cut paper, plas
tic and metal products. In
business only three years, he
began his die making career in
1953 as apprentice sample
maker with a box manufacturer.
Two years later, he became
foreman of the die department,
and in 1965 was named assist
ant superintendent of the plant.
Deciding to be his "own
man," he made an interim ar
rangement in 1969 with a com
pany near Pittsburgh to use its
equipment during off hours. He
spent his days getting orders
and his nights filling them. He
also managed to obtain used
equipment from a die custom
er's plant.
"I do not favor massive as
sistance from the government,
and have managed to build up
my business base with only two
relatively small loans," he said.
My main objective is to capital
ize on filling the existing gap in
western Pennsylvania's manu
facturing mix—namely the ma
nufacturing of steel fule dies."
Cox recognises the suppott
he has received from several
organizations and companies in
Pittsburgh.
"They have advised me, en
couraged me and helped to
open some doors," he said.
For example, the Chamber
of Commerce of Greater Pitts
burgh, through its Human Re
sources Development Council,
has been helping him for several
years.
The best barometer of any
business success is the growth
of the customer list. Customers
of Cox Steel Rule Die attest to
the fact that he can turn out
the die and finished stamped
product in a shorter time span
than some large die companies.
He attributes this acceptance
to quality of work, availability
and fast service.
PPG Industries is an example
of a large' corporation which
lists George Cox as a supplier.
He supplies the company's Glass
Division with end caps—die-cut
cardboard cushions that protect
the ends of newly fabricated
windshields from scratching
each other during packing and
shipping. PPG ascertained that
Cox had the capability to pro
duce the caps in the volume
and quality needed. Thomas
B. Montgomery, assistant dir
ector of purchasing for the
Glass division, said Cox now
has earned orders to supply end

To service PPG and other
volume stamping contracts, Cox
foresees the need for expansion
of his work force. Through
associations with vocational re
habilitation organizations, he
said he will be creating job
opportunities for an under
utilised labor market.
Working with his son, Ronnie,
and a small staff, Cox said he
is expanding his business by
continuing to turn out quality
products at competitive market
prices.
"With the understanding of
the business and industrial com
munities behind me and thi
ability to provide more jobs in
the area, I sincerely feel that I
can make an important contri
bution to the regional econ
omy," he said.
