    Our new office will be a place where creativity and collaboration intersect to grow brands customers around the globe have come to know and love. Built in 1907, the National Historic Site was once the largest button factory in the world. Now, it's ready for the next chapter; KENT employees are moving in today. “While attempting to fill the shoes of such a world-renowned company as the McKee Button Company won’t be easy, I’m confident that the KENT Consumer Brands division, which will soon fill these halls, offices, and desks, is up for the challenge. The products that will be worked on here are quite different, the hard work and dedication that have been seen in these halls will be matched, as well as our desire to deliver exceptional value to our customers around the world,” said Gage Kent, Chairman and CEO.

  • We’re proud to officially change our name to KENT WORLDWIDE. The name KENT WORLDWIDE carries our story forward. It draws from our past–“Kent Corporation” and our original name, “Kent Feeds”–while honoring the family behind it all. That same family still leads us today with the passion, ingenuity, curiosity, and drive that shaped our company from the very beginning. We’re just a couple years away from celebrating 100 years since our founding as Kent Feeds. Over the decades, we’ve grown from a single-family business into a global company, expanding across food, beverage and ingredients, agriculture, and pet care. That growth has been intentional–and successful. Now, we’re taking the next step: uniting our diverse businesses under one global brand–KENT WORLDWIDE. More than just a name, KENT WORLDWIDE reflects who we are and where we’re headed. It’s a symbol of our global presence–and our commitment to creating value for our customers around the world as we look toward the next 100 years.
