Handy Wacks Corporation was organized on the 8th day of July, 1929, and operated out of a facility on the Northwest side of Grand Rapids, Michigan. Daniel W. Atkinson was one of the original stockholders, and Mr. Atkinson proceeded to acquire sole owner ship of the assets of the company in September of 1932 and directed company operations until his death in 1934. Lou A. Keller, the daughter of Daniel Atkinson, joined the company as Office Manager, and assumed ownership of the company, along with her siblings, Pearl (Atkinson) Burtch and Walter Atkinson, upon Daniels death. Incorporation papers were filed within the State of Michigan in 1935 to reflect the new ownership. Handy Wacks physically moved to Sparta Michigan in 1936. Mrs. Kellers daughter, Irene Anderson, joined the company in 1944, and brought with her considerable skills as a bookkeeper and administrator. Upon the retirement of Mrs. Keller in 1945, Irene Anderson and her husband, Clarence, continued the general operation of the company. Clarence and Irene Anderson commenced buying stock in Handy Wacks from Walter Atkinson and Pearl Burtch. Irene did all of the office and bookkeeping work in the mornings, packaged the product in the afternoons, and after leaving his job as Assistant Postmaster in Sparta, Clarence, or Andy as he preferred to be called, went down evenings and ran the machines to make product for the next days shipping. The primary product at this time was a 12 x 13 1/2 wall carton dispenser of waxed paper that was designed to hang from a cupboard door. At that time, only approximately one third of the Handy Wacks product distribution was achieved through wholesale jobbers, with the majority of the product destined for the consumer market, often through mail order or selling to fundraising groups such as the church and the PTA. Handy Wacks now assumes the role of being an International marketing entity, with shipping containers going to Europe, and numerous shipments to neighboring countries. The range of products to service the Foodservice Industry has evolved to date into hundreds of sizes and items required by Foodservice operators, and even home makers through purchases at warehouse clubs and cash-and-carry outlets. As of 2008, Handy Wacks Corporation is still a minority company, with a woman, Marcia Fairchild being the majority stockholder. This will change in time with two sons progressing forward and two grandsons, to date, in the wings. We have been a leader in the foodservice industry for almost 20 years. We will do our utmost to satisfy you - our customer and our greatest asset!
