Longaberger Basket Headquarters, Ohio

Longaberger was a privately-held, direct-sales marketing company specializing in baskets and traditional home accent accessories. The company's manufacturing and administrative facilities along Highway 16 in Newark and Dresden were developed as a destination for the consumers of the company's products, which are sold directly to customers at home through a sales force of 45,000 Independent Sales Associates. The most prominent of the company's attractions was the corporate headquarters, where 500 people used to work within a seven-story building shaped like one of the company's products. The company moved on, and the basket has been passed from one user to the next.
