GREENWOOD FURNACE WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1918.
When your company goes back 100 years, you are bound to have mixed messages about the history. We now have an accurate founding date and founder. Thank you to the Zainey family and especially Jacklyn for taking the time to share the history with us. For a long time we believed we the Greenwood legacy began in 1921, we recently learned it was actually 1918. If you love local history like we do, check out the timeline below. I am sure Walter Zainey would be proud the heritage he created is still living on today.
