MATO OPENING SUCCESSFUL
The successful opening olMATO PACKING CO.,
INC., Saturday despite da'mp and rainy weather,
marked a dream come true for our county farm agent,
Harry Silver. It was through his vision and efforts
that this modern tomato grading and packing Plant
was conceived and it was through his untiring efforts
that have really paid off for tomato growers in this
county and surrounding counties.
Quite true, other business and professional men
who realized the great need for more diversification
in our county, saw the potential of a tomato shed here
and joined Mr. Silver in laying the groundwork for
the now MATO corporation. It would be most dif
ficult to name all the men who worked so faithfully
and gave so much of their time for this to become a
reality but it would be most unfair not to mention E.
C Teague, president of MATO; D. M. Robinson. C
D. Bowman, Zeno H. Ponder, L. B. Ramsey, Leonard
Baker, Robert Chandler, Frank T. Moore, C. E. Mash
burn, and all those who had faith in the new Madison
County industry to buy shares of stock, both in the
Madison County Development Board. Inc., and the
MATO PACKING CO., INC.
It was exciting and gratifying to see the new
industrial site humming with activity last Saturday
as trucks, bumper to bumper, waited in une uvmic
their load of tomatoes could be started through the
grading and boxing processes.
Although the ground was a bit muddy and the
weather most uncomfortable with fine rain falling
most of the afternoon, tomato growers, and other
interseted citizens, braved the elements to attend the
first day's operation of the plant People from every
section of Madison County were there. Most of them
seemed awed at the size of the shed, the modern con
veyors, and the efficiency in which the men and
women worked at their particular jobs.
When we arrived shortly after the first load of
tomatoes had been graded, there were some 50 trucks
lined up. When we left about an hour later, there
were even more trucks and cars waiting. This marked
the beginning of a new era for our county. This pro
gressive step will not only mean much to the tomato
growers, but will bolster our lagging economy
throughout the county.
Saturday, August 15, 1964, will be a "red letter"
day as far as our county is concerned. It has taken
hard work, faith, patience and hard-earned money
of many to make this dream come true.
We commend everyone who has had anything to
do with this step forward and sincerely hope that by
this success, there will be other steps of progress in
tHe near future.
