,
White
Castle
hamburger
boxes
marked
with the
corporate
logo
were
sprayed
with a
special
coating
developed
by the
Gardner-Richardson
Company
of
Middletown
,
Ohio
. This
coating
prevented
hamburger
grease
from
soaking
through
the
carton
.
White
Castle
first
used
the
boxes
for
carry-out
orders
in the
1930s
. This

. In the
1920s
,
White
Castle
introduced
the
concept
of
fast
food
,
chain
restaurants
and "
sliders
" to the
American
people
.
Billy
Ingram
and
Walter
Anderson
founded
the
White
Castle
restaurant
chain
in
Wichita
,
Kansas
, in
1921
.
Seeking
a
more
central
location
as the
business
expanded
,
Ingram
moved
the
headquarters
to
Columbus
in
1934
,
thus
earning
the
city
the
title
"
Hamburger
Capital
of the
World.
"
Part
of
White
Castle's
success
can
be
attributed
to its
innovative
production
equipment
,
marketing
strategies
, and
trademark
steel
and
porcelain
enamel
buildings
.
