The historic plant about a mile from Faribault's quaint downtown had been closed for two years when Edina businessmen Chuck and Paul Mooty purchased it this past June and resumed production in August.
Starting out with about 30 workers, many of them former mill employees, the Mootys gradually ramped up production. Last fall, the mill began making blankets for the Waldorf Astoria and Hudson hotels in New York and also produced woolen throws sold in about 30 Target stores.

The plant currently has about 50 workers but plans to add about 30 more in the next several weeks, Chuck Mooty said. It recently added Windstar Cruise Lines as a customer and needs the additional workers for a second shift to begin making blankets for Penneys this spring.
We were cautious in the fall, wanting to make sure the facility was ready to produce, said Paul Mooty. Now we're out there more aggressively trying to cultivate business.
Management team members recently returned from specialty trade shows in New York, where they were promoting the basic product line and some new products, like alpaca and cashmere scarves and shawls. you can http://goldvk.com/Game.wow_eu.World%20of%20Warcraft%20-%20EU.wow_eu.Gold.Info.aspx" rel="nofollow - wow gold kaufen from online shop with safe transaction.
Meanwhile, the new owners continue to renovate the plant to upgrade its engineering systems and give it a company store. Chuck Mooty said he expects the store to be open next month, initially on weekdays, with the exact hours to be determined.
Faribo brand products have been available on the company's website, www.faribault mill.com , since last fall and were sold at a temporary store at the Mall of America during the holiday season. Sales at the mall greatly exceeded expectations, Paul Mooty said.
Maybe we just aimed too low, he said.
