Kimberly-Clark invites you to come down to the Banana Belt

The next time the storms are fierce in the mountains just above us, and your regular supplier is only slightly more accessible than the top of Mount Everest, be glad Kimberly-Clark chose to build its thoroughly modern, fully automated, completely computerized mill down where the birds still sing and the roads are passable. lf at f irst you don't succeed, turn back to Kimberly-Clark. Chances are we can load you up even before your frostbite recedes.

We don't mind being second choice once in a while.

Many of our "drop-ins" decide to make Kimberly-Clark f irst choice everv time.
