Iola Industries, Inc. was incorporated in 1955 by a group of 12 businessmen for the purpose of promoting industry within the City of Iola, Kansas or our neighbors, and to promote the establishment of new industries in our area.

Since our foundation, our mission continues to be job creation and retention to sustain a diverse industrial base. Over the years, however, the board has broadened our scope to include additional efforts, such as housing, that will support the overall viability of Allen County as an attractive place to do business in an increasingly competitive environment. We remain committed to working with the City of Iola and Allen County; together, our partnership with Thrive Allen County helps promote our common goals.

Iola Industries, Inc. has approximately 500 acres available for industrial development. We continue to strive to serve existing businesses and industries and are always looking for new businesses that would complement those who are here.
