Company Profile

In 1969, Elvin C. Price began working in a basement workshop building quality, laborsaving devices for the sewn products industry. Few would have imagined this one-man company, capitalized with slightly more than $100, would one day become the world's largest builder of automated sewing equipment and custom laborsaving devices.

About Company

The emphasis has always been on quality; not only of the product but most importantly, the development of a quality work force. As Elvin so often points out, Atlanta Attachment's employees are its most valuable asset. Unlike the building and equipment, they appreciate and become more valuable. The company, therefore, puts most of its time and resources into recruiting and retaining the most talented and productive personnel. The company relocated to Lawrenceville, GA in 1978 to take advantage of a quality worker base. Today, even with unprecedented growth, that same hardworking and talented individual who meets the company's criteria can be found at Atlanta Attachment Company. While many of the company employees hold a college degree, it is not a prerequisite. The founder never had the opportunity to attend college other than the few classes he attended in the 1960's at Georgia Tech. It is the stated policy of Atlanta Attachment Company that: "We will provide an atmosphere in which talented and motivated persons can excel." Atlanta Attachment Company regularly exceeds its sales and profit goals and because of outstanding dedication, its employees enjoy a secure environment and share in its success.
