Harry
took the sales manager and salesman roles based on
his experience as sales manager with All Rite
Spring Company. David took the production
manager and set-up man roles based on his
experience as production foreman at All Rite
Spring. Harry has recently retired.
In
1981, the company landed General Motors Truck
& Bus Division as a customer, giving Solar
Spring & Wire Form Company a large boost to sales. GM
has remained a customer, and is now one if its
largest.
With
GM sales leading the sales growth for Solar
Spring & Wire Form
Company, they were forced to move to a larger
plant to accommodate the added machines needed for
the required added production. On January 2,
2002 the firm moved to an 80,000 square foot plant
at 345 Criss Circle in Elk Grove Village, where they are
today.
Minority
certification has proven to be of great value to
the company's fortunes. This was a major
factor in recruiting many customers; such as
Honda, AM General, John Deere, and the Army, in
addition to General Motors. |
