Smead Manufacturing Company
 PROFILE
Are women really more organized than men? Customers of Smead Manufacturing Company might think so. The company, owned by CEO Sharon Hoffman Avent, makes a variety of products to organize and manage offices. Smead's first product, a bandless, expandable file, is still among the thousands of items it makes for retail sale in office supply stores nationwide (including Office Depot, OfficeMax, and Staples). Other Smead products include hanging folders, labels, binders, and color-coded folders to the more advanced Smeadlink software package, which manages hard copy and computerized documents. Smead also runs European office products maker Atlanta Hoogezand. Avent's grandfather, Charles Smead, founded Smead in 1906.
