About Us (Cont.)
Product Innovation
It’s what sets Hy-Ko apart from all others.
Hy-Ko is committed to the development of new items and the redefinition of
existing products. For example, in the Numbers, Letters and Signs product
category, our sharpsales.com program provides consumers with a logical Internet
tie-in to signs they purchase through our retail partners. Whether it's listing
cars and trucks, or houses and condos, sharpsales.com is the ideal place for
buyers to meet sellers.
In the Key and Key Accessory product categories, the company holds the licensing
rights to use the logos of the major car manufacturers as well as the Looney
Tunes and Scooby Doo comic characters.
And in 2003, Hy-Ko began producing a designed-from-scratch key cutting machine
with unique features not seen before in the marketplace.
New Company/Manufacturing Headquarters
Hy-Ko grows into a larger state-of-the-art facility. 
In 2004, Hy-Ko moved into a modern, custom-built facility on 23 acres in
Northfield, Ohio, a southeast suburb of Cleveland. Increased manufacturing and
warehousing requirements to serve new and existing customers with the company’s
expanding product lines dictated the relocation to the new, 50% larger
building. The new architecturally-designed structure can be easily expanded to
accommodate future growth.
Within, the company installed the latest manufacturing equipment and streamlined
processes to increase efficiencies and ensure quality control.
The total capital investment in the new administration/manufacturing/inventory
headquarters is significant, attesting to the company’s financial strength and
confidence in its continued growth.
