Businesses/factories that are open for a few days a year?

[StevenYoo]

hi,

friend of mine in a business-related class was wondering if there were factories/manufacturing places that only operate for a combined period of maybe 20-30 days of a year.

do factories like this exist?

thanks

Yes, the company that makes Candy Corn.

Sure. How about the salmon fishing that only happens once or twice a year? Some of the vessels have canning facilities on them.

the plant I work at only operates at full steam for ~80 days out of the year.
