Louis Lancon served in the US Army for 20 years. He fought in Somalia in 1993, in Baghdad in 2003, and was company commander in the pitched battles to retake Ramadi in 2005. Today, Louis is President and CEO of the Sugar City Growers’ Co-op – a forward-looking hydroponic fruit and vegetable production in Jeanerette, Louisiana. While he was away fighting for his country, Patty Lancon stayed home and raised kids. When Louis returned and retired form the military and relocated to Jeanerette, Patty decided to go into business. She opened Bayou Bath Company, at first making soap in the family kitchen and today selling a wide range of local products and incorporating an in-store florist. The entrepreneurial Lancons have contributed a soldier's lifetime of service to the United States and continue to contribute the next phase of their life to the life of Jeanerette.
