Lion provides uniform and personal protective equipment, high-tech training equipment, training facilities and logistics services for police and fire departments, civilian government agencies, emergency services and the military.
More than six months after the tornadoes, the company still anchors local production at 66 Janney, where much of old North Dayton had been devastated by the outbreak of tornadoes.
The company in December had about 45 employees there, approaching 50 — about 15 more than when the tornadoes struck. (The family-owned company has about 1,000 employees nationwide.)
