Swanson marks 75 years with anniversary specials

Swanson Christian Products is celebrating 75 years with the 75th edition of its catalog, including 75%-off specials on more than 60 products from magnets to Bible covers.

"We want to thank all of our customers, retail partners and supplier relationships for their part in helping our ministry reach 75 years of service. We look forward to partnering with them for many years to come," said John McKinney Sr., the company's director of operations.

Founded by Clifford E. Swanson in 1935, Swanson Christian Products began in a small storeroom above a Pennsylvania grocery store. Swanson's youngest son, Joseph, purchased the business in 1963, and it eventually relocated to Tennessee. In 2004, the company was purchased by Victory Christian Center, pastored by Adam Swanson, grandson of the company's founder.

Now operating as a not-for-profit ministry, Swanson supports missions internationally. Swanson has more than 50,000 square feet of warehouse, manufacturing and office space and offers more than 4,000 products.
