But the plus side to dealing with such a large and far-reaching company is that there are plenty of cabinets to choose from. Here’s some more information about MasterBrand and what they have to offer.

History

Founded in 1926 in Richmond, Indiana, Kemper Distinctive cabinetry is the oldest cabinetmaker in the United States. Kemper got its start making freestanding dressers, cabinets and other furniture, but when the post-World War II home construction boom brought a demand for built-in cabinets, Kemper quickly shifted gears.

Schrock began in 1961, and was founded in Arthur, Illinois. Diamond came along in 1970 in Grants Pass, Oregon. After a series of mergers and acquisitions, MasterBrands was created as the parent company in 1998. Today, MasterBrands continues to operate a manufacturing facility in the Indiana town where Kemper got its start.
