Description
Pictured in 1926 is the Wood, Curtis Company’s recently completed distribution plant at Sixteenth and B Streets. One of California’s oldest and largest produce businesses, Wood, Curtis operated with interests as far north as Klamath Falls, Oregon and east as Reno, Nevada. The company – whose primary product was potatoes – was founded by William H. Wood and William A. Curtis. The business was ultimately sold to San Francisco’s Levy and Zentner Company in 1926, the same year that the Wood, Curtis opened its 50,000 square foot, 150,000 dollar facility. It had been located at 117 J Street.
