It All Started in a Hog Barn

What started as a small woodshop in a hog barn on a rural Kansas farm has grown into a company producing roughly 2,000 cabinets and 300 house doors every day.

In this episode of Humble Ground, we sit down with Jim Koch, founder of Koch & Company, to hear how it all started. Jim shares how growing up and working on the farm shaped his work ethic, the early days of building a business with what he had, and how those same values helped turn a small-town operation into the company it is today.

It’s a story about hard work, taking chances, staying grounded and building something that lasts.
