The Ponca City Development Authority (PCDA) is proud to announce an incentive agreement with Century Products, LLC, a leading manufacturer of agricultural and livestock solutions. This collaboration will support Century Products’ $2.5 million expansion project, which includes the acquisition of new equipment and the creation of 20 new jobs over the next three years.
Century Products was founded in 1993 in Shilder, Oklahoma, and relocated to Ponca City in 2021 under the leadership of Jay Fagan. Since the move, the company has experienced substantial growth, diversified its product lines, and expanded its workforce. In July 2023, Century Products acquired the former Smith Bits building, where they plan to consolidate their operations while retaining their current facility for storage.
The company’s innovative approach to manufacturing has solidified its reputation as a trusted supplier in the agricultural industry. Century Products is best known for pioneering the first poly plastic feeder, a durable and weather-resistant solution for livestock feeding. Over the years, the company has continued to develop high-quality, long-lasting products that meet the evolving needs of the agricultural community.
“We are grateful for the support of the Ponca City Development Authority as we take this next step in our journey,” said Jay Fagan, owner of Century Products, LLC. “This expansion is not just about growing our business; it’s about investing in our community, creating jobs, and continuing to deliver the quality products our customers expect. Ponca City has been a great place to call home, and we look forward to what the future holds.”
The PCDA’s incentive contract is part of its ongoing mission to foster economic growth and create opportunities for businesses to thrive in Ponca City. This partnership with Century Products highlights the shared commitment to building a vibrant and sustainable local economy.
“Century Products’ decision to expand in Ponca City is a testament to our community’s supportive business environment and skilled workforce,” said Lori Henderson, Executive Director, PCDA. “We are excited to support their growth and the economic benefits it will bring to our area.”
