Aaron Thomas Company was founded in 1973 in a small 20,000sf facility as the need for a local contract packaging service that understood the needs of Max Factor & Company grew. At the age of twenty-four, the VP of Manufacturing for Max Factor & Company, basically told the purchasing and packaging development departments to “give Tom a chance.” After several years of being a captive service provider to Max Factor the firm expanded services and clients and became one of the first significant service providers to Sol Price and the warehouse club industry.

Today Aaron Thomas Company provides much more than simple manual assembly line and rework services. With several million dollars worth of packaging equipment, and years of experience, the company continues to be a major service provider to a variety of consumer product manufacturers.
