DOING BUSINESS HERE
Kentucky is a manufacturing and industrial state and Frankfort represents the essence of that. Even as Frankfort is fueled by big ideas, it is powered by hard work and strong character. In Frankfort, Jim Beam bottles 100 different brands of alcohol for global distribution. Dashboards are built for Mercedes and Jaguar and shipped all over the world. Centria is a $150 million commercial siding manufacturer. And, like the men who made Kentucky great, the workforce in Frankfort is tough and independent-minded.
​
​Frankfort is making modern history, but the city is also deeply rooted in Kentucky’s past. Legendary frontiersman Daniel Boone is buried in Frankfort. Historic architecture graces government buildings from the current Capitol to the old state Capitol, the Governor’s mansions, the region’s only Frank Lloyd Wright house and Liberty Hill, the home of John Brown, one of Kentucky’s founding fathers. Frankfort even has one of Kentucky’s few remaining original covered bridges.​
