In the beginning, Graham provided electrical control systems and custom packaging equipment to Coca-Cola. As word spread throughout Coca-Cola, some of the innovations and improvements that ABCO had implemented, particularly in labeling and filling, led to considerable growth for the young business.ABCO won significant contracts from Coca-Cola in the early 1980s supplying turnkey packaging lines in new plants and was heavily engaged in packaging improvement projects in Coca-Cola plants throughout the United States.By the lates 80s, ABCO diversified its client base, performing controls work and building custom equipment for a broader range of manufacturers. This growth in the client base increased sales revenues and capabilities as ABCO began to go beyond packaging projects into manufacturing assembly, material handling, and inspection equipment.In the mid-1990s, ABCO became an ESOP company. ABCO believes the open information sharing provided as an ESOP contributes to a highly motivated workforce and helps the company to achieve exceptional levels of performance.By the early 2000s, ABCO began to offer Build to Print equipment manufacturing programs. Since its inception, Build to Print has been ABCO’s fastest growing service. The company is proud to be selected to build technologically advanced equipment for industries where quality is paramount.
