GRAND ISLAND, Neb. (KSNB) - The Hall County Board of Commissioners recognized Hornady Manufacturing for 75 years of service.

The owner, Steve Hornady, accepted the award and said he was surprised by the amount of people there.

Multiple individuals spoke on how Hornady is always involved in the community. Hornady said they are only doing what they feel is the right thing and shared what made Hornady successful.

“I think part of what it is perseverance and going forward delivering to our customers a quality product at a fair price,” Hornady said. “Over the years, continuing to do that and believe in your customer and what your customer wants has ultimately been successful for us.”

Hornady said the philosophy that drives them is making what your customers want at a fair price. Although the company has become global, Grand Island is still home.
