Monday Morning Coffee: Cola To Bader

 

Traveling about medium sized Indiana communities often find what once was a Coke-Cola bottling plant.   

With the advent of modern transportation methods, product production has been centralized and these small local facilities have been closed. 

The remaining buildings are often recycled into completely different, useful and needed tasks. 

Here in Richmond, the Bader Services Inc is housed in one.

    Richmond, Indiana.

Bader Mechanical, Inc. was founded in 1936 by the Bader family as a heating and fuel oil business.

In 1995, Bader was purchased by Max Duke and Bob Williams and then in 2018 sold to Adam and Annie Duke.

Over the years, Bader has expanded the range and depth of their offerings which now include plumbing, electrical, heating and air conditioning services.
