It is with great honor that I’m able to promote our 17-year veteran, Gerald “Yogi” Hiscock to the position of Auburn Superintendent. Yogi has extensive knowledge of industrial pumps, generators, and electric motors. He was instrumental in the recent growth of our Auburn location. Holding the position of Shop Foreman for eight years, Yogi has an extraordinary gift for mentoring and bringing out the best in people. Yogi’s positive attitude and ability to promote teamwork have propelled the Auburn location into the position of one of the largest privately owned shops in the Northeast.
Please offer your congratulations on his well deserved promotion.. Becky Sanborn, President & CEO
