Hi…I’m Nelson Reyes, President and CEO of GB
Manufacturing.
Here at GB, we are guided by our three core principles
1) Providing unique solutions for customers and our
operations
2) Continuous investment in our people – GB’s greatest
asset
3) Maintaining financial stability to reinvest in our
future
Our focus at GB is to be a value added supplier providing
customers with unique solutions. We do
this through our winning combination of experienced team members and ongoing
investments in capital improvements.
Even during the recent economic downturn, GB made major investments in
our operations while others were divesting and/or retrenched theirs. Our expanded capabilities and improvements
have included:
. Upgraded
Tool and Die capacity to increase our capacity for "take over" work.
. New
Machining Centers to decrease die development and production lead times and add
additional machining capability.
. Added
additional presses for increased capacity, capability, and flexibility.
. Added a state-of-the-art, more powerful
laser to cut thicker and reflective material .
. Added
additional and more powerful "spot welders."
. Added
offline grinding and tapping operations.
. Added a
manufacturing footprint to our second plant to increase capacity and
flexibility
. We are
also continuing looking at acquisitions to increase our capacity and
capabilities.
Even more important, GB continues to invest in our
people. Their continued growth in
knowledge and skills is critical to our future success. This allows us to improve the parts we supply. Many companies say this (like Lean), but we
can deliver faster, better, stronger results by focusing on 100% employee
engagement and company culture. Aligning our objectives and goals at providing
"unique solutions to our operation and our customers is our
"culture".
GB provides value to customers through our collaborative
efforts to reduce customer cost drivers and pain points (i.e. quality,
delivery) by providing game-changing solutions - leveraging our proven track
record in manufacturing vs. offering short term cheap prices.
This focus of providing unique solutions has helped GB
grow market share and penetration to both our current and new diversified
customer base in the automotive/niche, commercial vehicle, alternative energy, and industrial markets. Not many
businesses can say that these days.
Because of GB’s focused strategies, we not only survived
the economic downturn, we are a faster, better, and stronger company than ever
before. We have the financial liquidity and equipment capacity to take on your
challenges. Be assured, our team will not rest from the work necessary to
achieve our goal of being a long term sustainable company for our customers, our
team members, and our community who depend on us to provide high quality
American jobs for future generations.
We at GB Manufacturing appreciate the opportunity to
earning your business and respect.
