Metal Products Fabrication

Alry Tool & Die Company was founded in 1944 by Martin Ryan, Peter Allen and his sons James, Francis, Sr. and Joseph (President) as a die making facility in a garage on Cherry Street in Buffalo, New York. A new Alry was "born" as a 3500 square foot building on four acres of land at the corner of Fillmore and Reservation in the Town of Tonawanda, New York on January 17, 1955. At the time, it employed a total of eight. As the years passed, the founders brought their sons in to the business and taught them the trade. Each of the sons have attained college degrees to augment their "hands on" training.

A lot has changed in the ensuing years - even the street names. While still in the same location, Alry is now at the corner of Fillmore and the Twin Cities Highway. In 1960, the Forge Shop was begun in a free standing building adjacent to the original. The original building was expanded by 12,320 square feet through 1984, adding additional forging, die making, and shipping space.
