A northwest Iowa company that makes paint and stains is celebrating a ribbon-cutting on a warehouse expansion project that doubles its existing space. Diamond Vogel (VOE-gul) has been in Orange City for 93 years. Drew Vogel, a third-generation family member, C-E-O and chairman of the board, says the expansion of the Old Masters warehouse is evidence the division is doing well in the marketplace.

Vogel’s grandfather, Andrew Vogel, was a Dutch immigrant who started the company in 1926. He says the company’s longevity and success over the years is due to meeting a basic need.
