The brewery was too, read the 2nd paragraph, don't just skim. Both the examples I provided (I haven't got the time to post all day - you must tell me how you do it) were founded in the 1790s or earlier.

The manufacturing firm I listed was the first "large scale" company, and I provided it for your edification.
Good find. I saw 1813 when I clicked the link and stopped reading

BTW, how did you find those companies? What was your search term?

I searched with variations of "the first company created in America" "Americas first corporation" with other variations, and found nothing.
