It boosts 102 more passenger cars, expands retail sales, and drives increased business for doctors, lawyers, dentists, and local professionals through activity at firms such as McVeety Cleaners and Leuthold's Star Clothing, with numerous suppliers and services listed.

Eldora's Drive to Attract Industry Yields 1959 Milestones

A comprehensive 1957 1958 program built a welcoming climate for industry in Eldora Iowa, led by an Industrial Development Corporation. Key steps included rose campaigns, Pine Lake improvements, freight service, a new pool and housing, an Air Force training center, and a thriving salesmen network. In 1959 Prima Foods and Prime seed corn plans, plus 36 acres for an industrial park, marked a turning point. A Northrup King expansion was announced for 1960, signaling ongoing growth.
