The Sanford Whip Company is a historic factory at 330 Elm Street in Westfield, Massachusetts, built in 1883 in the Italianate style. It was operated by one of the whip-making businesses that earned Westfield the nickname "Whip City." After the whip market declined in the early 20th century, the building housed a novelty toy manufacturer for many years. It was listed individually on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008 and was later converted into affordable housing.
