SUMNER, WA - Pacific Crest Industries, a national manufacturer of custom frameless kitchen cabinetry, has renamed itself Bellmont Cabinet Company. Recently expanding into Midwest and Southeast markets, Bellmont Cabinet says it has increased employment by 50 percent.

The name, derived from the Italian for "beautiful mountain," reflects the company's location near Mt. Ranier, as well as its 25-year legacy under founder Steve Bell, CEO.

"'Bellmont' is more than a name change," says Bell. "We also are embracing new and significant trends, including our customers' expectation of affordable customization."
