WIW and Press Equipment Aftermarket Sales News

Portland, Oregon U.S.A. - 21 July 2004
We are pleased to introduce Bob Valentine as Coe Manufacturing's new WIW and Press Equipment Aftermarket Customer Service Representative. Bob is taking over for Orv Lervold, who is retiring after over 50 years in the industry.

Bob brings 26 years of experience with Coe to his new position. Starting on the shop floor, he has progressed through manufacturing operations, field service, production control and purchasing. During his career, he has made, scheduled, purchased and coordinated the delivery of WIW and Press Aftermarket Parts to our Customer Base. He knows these components well, and he has a first hand appreciation for what it takes to meet the Customer Service requirements.

In addition, Bob knows what it takes to develop and nurture the trusting relationships needed to make a long-term partnership with our Customers work. He brings a combination of sound product knowledge, hands-on manufacturing operating experience and a keen sense of knowing both Coe and our Customer Base. This will serve as a solid foundation for him as he assumes this new responsibility and continues to provide the level of service and expertise our customers expect in this key segment of our business.

Coe Manufacturing, along with Coe Newnes/McGehee, comprise the Coe Group, the only manufacturer to provide comprehensive machinery solutions, including Solid Wood, Veneer and Engineered Panels.
