Girbau North America recently recognized more than a dozen employees who have accrued 10 to 25 years of service to the company.
“The fact that our employees continue to find our company a favorable career choice lends itself to the idea that our work environment, customer base and philosophies are leading edge,” said GNA President Mike Floyd. “We are grateful to them for their contributions over the years.”
Five team members celebrated their 25th year with company, including Floyd, Director of Customer Experience Laurie Kilgore, Manager of Inventory Control and Operations Jay Leitz, Director of HR and Strategic Business Kelly Zabel, and Commercial Technical Service Trainer Gary Clark.
“These folks helped grow GNA shortly after it was founded in 1995,” Floyd noted. “Together, Laurie, Jay, Kelly, Gary and myself have witnessed the exponential growth of the company, the development of many, many new products, and the establishment of multiple brands. They continue to excel in performance, attitude and teamwork.”
