GIW Industries, Inc. Release date: June 27, 2008
GIW Industries, Inc. may not have made Fortune's Top 100 Companies List but by looking at their employee's longevity records, maybe they should have.
Each year, GIW holds a special banquet honoring an elite group of workers - current employees that have worked for the company for 30 years or more. This year, the group grows to 46 members strong. Even more remarkable, one of the group's members reached a special milestone this year. As of January 2, Mr. Reab Berry has worked at GIW for 45 years and currently serves as Director of Business Development.
During his career at GIW, Mr. Berry has worked on design, testing, sales, selection, installation and troubleshooting of slurry pumps and systems. Using knowledge gained from hands on experience, Reab has been able to solve the most mind boggling slurry pumping problems and is well known as a slurry pump expert. "GIW is a great company with a rich history and I count it an honor and a blessing to have worked at GIW for 45 years. I am proud that GIW is respected world-wide for quality products, technical expertise and honesty in its business dealings," stated Mr. Berry.
The 2008 meeting of the GIW "Thirty Year Club" was held January 17 at the Belair Conference Center in Grovetown, GA. To be enlisted as a member of the club, workers must be an active employee of GIW for at least 30 years. At the banquet, the new inductees were honored with an engraved watch and other tokens presented by GIW's President and CEO - Mr. Dennis Ziegler.
For a company to be able to boast such a service record, they must be doing something right. Established as a small privately-owned foundry and machine shop in 1891, over the years GIW has made its way to the forefront of the slurry pump industry. In 1996 GIW became a fully owned subsidiary of KSB's Worldwide Pump and Valve Group headquartered in Frankenthal, Germany with sales of more than $2 billion USD. But GIW's basic operating philosophy has remained unchanged. GIW continues to partner with its customers and offer innovative solutions to the slurry pumping industry worldwide.
According to Patricia Hunt, Accounts Payable Specialist and new 30 year club inductee, the greatest change in GIW over the years has been the, "...growth - more business and more people - and this is a good thing!." GIW hopes to keep this good thing going with the support of its dedicated employees.
