In 1949, World War II veteran and entrepreneur, Norm Seaman pursued a vision to create fabrics that could set a new world standard for versatility and performance. With a kitchen laboratory and two sewing machines in a basement workshop in Canal Fulton, Ohio, he developed the company’s earliest products. These early efforts established a platform for quality, performance and customer service that today distinguishes the company as a global leader.
A privately held business, Seaman Corporation is governed by an independent outside Board of Directors. Jeff Swartz, President, manages the daily operations of the company and guides a group of top leaders among all business functions who form Seaman Corporation’s Strategic Leadership Team.
