Historic Luck's Bean Cannery

In 1947 Alfred Spencer, Ivey Luck and H. Clay Presnell started Mountain View Canning Company.  The Cannery was located in Seagrove in a scenic rural area.  Pinto beans were canned and the company eventually changed the name to Luck's.  The company grew in success and employed many people in the area.  The aroma of over 600 cans per minute cooking no longer fills the air along Highway 705.  It was sold to ConAgra in 2000 and closed in 2002.  Read more of the history in an Our State magazine article by Chip Womack by clicking below.

Project Overview

Pintos, Pottery and Plastics have been a part of Seagrove since Jack Lail started his company in 1971.  This project stems from his commitment to Seagrove.  It is the kind of project that the 1989 Randolph County Citizen of the year and 1980 NC Small Businessman of the year is known for.  

The Luck's facility was purchased in March 2017 by Mr. Lail.  The upper building is leased to Sapona Plastics for manufacturing and distribution.  Lail invested over $500,000 additional to upgrade that building replacing the roof, HVAC, sprinklers and lighting.  The addition of 25 new jobs with Sapona Plastics qualified the project for a $250,000 North Carolina building reuse grant.

"Our objective is to expand production and warehousing in the upper building with a vision to provide the lower building to the local community for the pottery celebration, economic development and other uses.  The town of Seagrove found our vision very appealing and offered to accept the building donation with the stipulation that we clean it up, sell off the equipment and line up funding for repairs and maintenance. We are glad to be able to do something positive for the community and economy while revitalizing the vacant building that had been severely vandalized."
