| Historical Info: World War II was still prominent in people’s minds in 1947 when a young engineer named C. L. Mitchell founded Mitchell Engineering in Columbus. In 1950, Mitchell’s staff included four people in the office, four in the shop and an erection crew of three. By 1951, Mitchell’s staff was totally designing and fabricating all of its own buildings utilizing 4:12 slope Fink trusses and bowstring trusses, both typical of early metal buildings. In 1961, Mitchell made the decision to merge with the Ceco Corporation to give added financial strength to his growing enterprise. |

In 1967, a manufacturing plant was constructed in Rocky Mount, NC, with another plant added in Mount Pleasant, IA, in 1972. Ceco’s original 4,000 sq. ft. of space has grown to more than 700,000 sq. ft. of manufacturing space with an additional 45,000 sq. ft. of office space at three locations. The ’60s were the growth years of the metal building industry, and Ceco was a leader in custom, uniform pricing, development of the low profile building and standing seam roof, and a pioneer in designing and estimating buildings with a computer. Since its inception in 1947, Ceco has engineered and manufactured more than 125,000 structures, the largest being a million-plus sq. ft. warehouse for one of the nation’s leading department store chains.
