Event Summary: <\/strong>Key Technology was started in 1948 by a handful of local men that had an idea on how to make pea sorting easier. Since that time, Key has continue to grow and is now a global leader in the design and manufacture of food processing equipment. The solutions that Key provides to customers worldwide improve quality, increase yield and reduce cost.

80% of the top 20 food processors in the world are customers of Key Technology.

Key Technology in Walla Walla uses about 2.5 million pounds of stainless steel every year.

Most French fries and potato products produced in the world go over at least one piece of Key Technology<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
