Our Story
Founded in 1976 by Howard Yoder, Ascot began as a small manufacturer in Nappanee, Indiana, producing draperies and bedspreads for the recreational vehicle and manufactured housing industries. From the beginning, the company earned a reputation for exceptional quality and a genuine, service-first approach to every customer relationship.
As customer needs evolved, so did Ascot’s capabilities—expanding into a complete range of window and soft goods, all produced with precision and care. Over the decades, strategic growth and industry partnerships have strengthened our expertise and broadened our ability to serve customers nationwide. In 2016, Ascot joined the Schumacher Capital family, positioning the company for continued innovation and long-term growth.
