Dear Customers,
It’s the end of our third week since the fire, and I want to provide another progress update. The process of replacing our lost inventory is moving along—our supply base has been very responsive, and replacement materials have begun to arrive. Additionally, we are using subcontractors to perform some aspects of fabrication that were lost in the fire. New equipment is being installed, with more to be delivered over the next two weeks.
On the production floor, we continue to produce those items we have the raw materials to process, and our output will increase as replacement materials and equipment come in. Our team is expediting orders and will be communicating with you when we can serve your needs; understandably, some items will be able to be produced earlier than others as we walk through this process. We ask that you please be patient with us during this time.
I am confident that production will be flowing at a much better rate over the next two to three weeks. Please work with your salesperson to help us prioritize your orders, and know that you and your business are important to us.
Best Regards,
Gary Westermeyer, President
