The strategic move allowed Lee Container to increase warehouse space and expand to 17 production lines.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">With the company\u2019s continued growth, in 2004 Lee Container purchased an adjacent warehouse bringing its total manufacturing and distribution space to 600,000-square-feet, and production capacity to more than 25 lines.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">In 2012, Robert Varnedoe, formerly executive vice president of sales, succeeded Donald Lee as president of the company. Varnedoe, Lee\u2019s son-in-law, had joined the company at its inception in 1989.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cWe started with a small production line,\u201d Varnedoe said. \u201cMr. Lee had worked at Brockway Standard in Homerville for 30 years, and he purchased the plastic blow-molding lines from them to start his business.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">In 2004, Lee Container opened a second manufacturing operation in Nacogdoches, Texas. The 105,000-square-foot facility is instrumental in serving Lee\u2019s lubricant market within the Southwestern part of the U.S., as well as all the company\u2019s primary crop protection market.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The company\u2019s third manufacturing facility opened in 2007 at the former Rubbermaid plant in Centerville, Iowa. With this 660,00-square-foot facility, Lee Container can serve customers in the Midwestern part of the U.S., while benefiting from lower freight costs and shorter lead times, both important within the agricultural chemical industry.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cThe expansions were very strategic to help us reach our customers in the Southeast and Midwest,\u201d Varnedoe said. \u201cThe location of our facilities allows us to be 200 to 300 miles from our customers, that is important in the agricultural chemical industry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Varnedoe said having 1.4 million square feet of warehouse space is an advantage, especially within the packaging for agricultural chemicals.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2024\" style=\"width: 285px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2024\" data-attachment-id=\"2024\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/sgamag.com\/index.php\/2019\/02\/24\/lee-container-continues-to-show-growth-as-it-celebrates-30-year\/lee-container_2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sgamag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Lee-Container_2-e1551006021510.jpg?fit=3456%2C5184&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"3456,5184\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;5.6&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS REBEL T5&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1518491013&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;51&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;800&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.016666666666667&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;6&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Lee Container_2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sgamag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Lee-Container_2-e1551006021510.jpg?fit=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sgamag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Lee-Container_2-e1551006021510.jpg?fit=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-2024\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sgamag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Lee-Container_2-e1551006021510-683x1024.jpg?resize=275%2C378\" alt=\"\" width=\"275\" height=\"378\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2024\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em><strong>Lee Container in Clinch County manufactures more than 100 million containers per year for various markets including crop protection, lubricants, and garden chemicals.<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cWe have a 30-year history of making good quality products,\u201d Varnedoe said. \u201cWe have also continued to add warehousing space, which allows us to build inventory.
