The company is also known in the industry for it’s reputation for service and quality by “Outworking the Competition”, a phrase coined by Larry in 1965. “My father, Harry and Uncle Larry insisted on providing customers with the best product and service possible. The 50th anniversary is testament to our continued dedication to this core value!" said Craig Jones; Chief Executive Officer. Since established, Jones Plastic and Engineering has increased its staff up to 2400 employees worldwide and its plants are comprised of nearly 1,000,000 square feet. “It wasn’t always growth over the fifty years”, said Harry Jones. “Sometime the markets changed and then we had to adjust”.
