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.

“Attention to detail is not about perfection. It’s about excellence, about constant improvement.” – Chris Denny, Speaker, trainer, business owner

Herb Haggard, my father, as the founder of Haggard & Stocking has taken the company from very humble beginnings to an internationally known company. At its start, Haggard & Stocking was part rep agency and small time-limited stocking distributor with a customer base solely in central Indiana. I can tell you he often spent hours working through the day and then spending several hours working in his home office in his basement during nights and weekends. Haggard & Stocking has long been like another child to my father as he has watched it take shape to what it is today. His passion is contagious, and I have been very honored to follow in his footsteps into the world of Industrial Distribution. I remember being proud to come into the office as a young child and help where he “needed me.” I spent several weekend days putting stickers on catalogs and believing that was going to make a huge difference in my father’s sales efforts.
