Founded in 1952, Spokane Industries has grown to an international company serving customers across the globe. John C. Tenold founded the company as Spokane Steel Foundry to provide quality castings to local mines, ore mills, lumber industries and the construction industry. The foundry moved to the Spokane Industrial Park in 1965 where it remains today in an efficient, technologically advanced facility spanning 265,000 square feet. Spokane Industries is proud to be a second generation family owned and operated company. In addition to the Tenold family owners, many on our team are second and third generation employees.
