As we head into fall on Saturday, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on the awesomely busy summer we've had here at H&S. We've had numerous INTMA Events, our company Indianapolis Indians game, several golf outings (as both sponsors and attendees), the Indiana Manufacturing Suppliers Expo, the Governor's Century and Half-Century Awards, and the Lineman Rodeo! It may not sound like a lot, but the preparation and execution of each of these events was no small feat. Below, you can find collages and further info on a few of these events.

In case you missed it, we just released the final episode of our 50th Anniversary Vlog Series last week. In this episode, we went down to Greensboro, North Carolina to learn about Haggard & Stocking's involvement in aerospace MRO industry there. Join Jeff, as he interviews Les Hall, the manager of our Greensboro team. Don't miss this insightful journey into the world of aerospace maintenance and repair!

Haggard & Stocking acquired Imperial in 2016, but they have a 20-year history since their inception back in 2003. Imperial has become the premiere provider of construction, MRO, and metalworking supplies in Evansville and the surrounding area.

In case you missed it, we posted Episode #3 of our 50th Anniversary Vlog Series back in December. In this episode, we interviewed Kevin Burnett, our Executive Vice President, who started our Fort Wayne branch back in 1981 and still oversees it today. We serve many industries from our Fort Wayne location, but this branch has become a key partner to the flourishing medical manufacturing market of northern Indiana. Kevin shares some insights on how we came to be in Fort Wayne along with why we are so successful in the northern Indiana industrial and MRO supply market.

Millennials have been scrutinized, analyzed, and talked about more than any other topic in the manufacturing industry. With all of the research and analysis, it still feels like we millennials are “unicorns” in the industry. It does not have to be like this at all! Haggard & Stocking is a family-owned independent company with a very open and honest environment where opinions can be heard and anyone can leave their mark on our organization.

COVID-19 has brought many challenges to work, employees, and their families as we find ways to adjust to this tough situation. Unfortunately, cyber criminals are using the pandemic as an opportunity to exploit things in hopes of monetary gains. This means that all of us need to be more cautious as we try to stay up to date with the news and our business.
