Formostpkg

The year was 1964. Formo saw the growing possibilities in poly-bagged bread, and against resistance from the baking industry and warnings that poly-bagged bread was a passing fad, he opened his business - Formost Packaging Machines, Inc., in Seattle's old Ballard area. It was St. Patrick's Day.
Aware of the growing market and sales potential for bagged bread, Formo began his development of an automatic poly-bagging machine in 1963. He had seen a prototype bagging machine that was introduced in 1961 at the American Baking Association Convention and Exposition in Atlantic City. The next year, he watched an automatic bread bagging machine, developed by Roy Willard and Bill Noyes, perform at Buchan Bakery in Seattle.
