Hughes Bros. Inc.

Success stories are always good to tell and Hughes Bros. Inc. is certainly one of them. I took this picture yesterday of the "plant"showing the framework for the new building. At a recent Kiwanis meeting, a company representative told of a new product called "Thin Wall" construction. It shows up on their website at <www.hughesbros.com> The new addition will house part of the fiberglass re bar production that is a vital component in the Thin-Wall. The Company dates back to 1923 and is in it's 3rd generation of family leadership. It has been a great part of Seward for these many years. I was born in a house on West Moffitt Street, that was moved several years ago to allow expansion of the plant at that time. Some of my earliest memories are of watching some of the early transmission line testing that was done across our backyard fence.  I have admired the plants operation ever since.
