In 1855 brothers Richard and William Savage founded Savage Brothers Company, laying the foundation for a legacy that would span generations.<\/strong> They committed themselves and succeeding generations to designing and manufacturing the finest machinery for the artisan candy maker.<\/p>

From the humble beginnings of wood-burning and coal-fired candy stoves to the efficiency of our present-day gas and electric models, the Savage family owned and operated the company until 1976. A new era began with the transition to the capable hands of our present ownership group. In 2024, we proudly celebrate nearly 170 years of unwavering dedication to serving candy makers worldwide.<\/p>

Today, Savage Brothers Company continues to honor the commitment made by the founding brothers in 1855.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Why would a 165-year-old confectionery machine manufacturer turn to Toyota for help with their production process?<\/strong><\/p>

Savage Bros has been working with the Toyota Production System Support Center (TSSC) on a project to reduce lead times for one of our most popular machines, the Firemixer-14 Table Top Cooker. Through the use of Toyota Production System (TPS) tools, the Firemixer-14 is now ready to ship within days (if not the same day) of receiving an order compared to its previous 8+ week lead time. To learn more about the Firemixer-14 and the specific tools we used to achieve such a dramatic improvement in lead time, enjoy Toyota\u2019s recently released video on the project. Savage Bros plans to continue to use these tools on other product lines to meet customers’ needs quicker than ever before.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
