Drake Company

1410 Genicom Drive Waynesboro, VA 22980 United States

We’re a Virginia-based OEM that creates finely tuned, custom equipment for the global food processing industry, occupying the end of production lines that sort and load food from ovens into packaging machines. Since our humble beginnings in 1979, Drake rose to dominate this unique market, specifically by patenting a new, more efficient method of loading hot dogs and sausages. Drake has since remained an industry leader not only by keeping up with advances in technology, but also by innovating equipment for other products like chicken, cheese, pickles, snack sticks, and more.
