Centrally located among family owned corn farms in Iowa, you'll find Paragon International, Inc, a family-owned company that started out making popcorn machines years ago. Their goal back then was simple: Don't be the largest, just be the best. Over the years, Paragon achieved that goal using the latest technology of the day, the best materials, and dedicated, local employees who took real pride in their work.
In the following years, they built their business, expanded their market to 43 countries, patented several innovations and introduced the world's first four-ounce popcorn machine. They also began manufacturing cotton candy and sno cone equipment, and started stocking a full line of concession supplies.
With over 45 years of industry experience behind them, Paragon still conducts business the same way as the day they began operations: they're still family owned, still in Iowa, and still committed to the latest technology, quality materials, and a dependable, local workforce. Their goal is the same, too: Don't be the largest, just be the best.
