More than 50 years later, Samuels remains the majority owner, and Leedo remains committed to meeting the needs of large-scale production builders – true to the vision of our founders. Leedo produces more than 600,000 cabinets per year and more than 100 miles of countertops. The company has two factories west of Houston, Texas, where we make traditional face-frame cabinets, European-style frameless cabinets and laminate countertops for the multifamily industry.
