Proudly Working in Mauston
Mauston, WI - On March 31, 2008 ownership of the Dumore Corporation was transferred from Richard Harrington to the management team and new owners of Dave Messer-President, Julie Berkos- VP of Finance and Administration, Craig Hanson-National Sales Manager, Mike McKeon-Outside Sales, Vern Mittlesteadt- Industrial Engineer and Jim Jordan-Materials Manager. The sale of the company is of special significance because of the “local” nature of the transfer of ownership. Many of the new owners are local residents, a local lender was utilized for the financing and the job security for sixty-five employees is greater than if an outside investor had bought the business.
Richard Harrington, former owner, pointed out that it was extremely important focus to him to keep the Dumore operation in Mauston as he searched out a successor. He was delighted in the outcome of the sale to be the best possible scenario noting the strength of the new ownership team with their many years of experience, good coordinated synergy and in-depth knowledge of the Dumore products, operations, customers and competitors.
Dave Messer, President, expressed enthusiasm for potential growth and a bright future for Dumore Corporation with a team of good people in place to move the business forward.
Dumore manufactures a wide variety of custom designed OEM motors and industrial tools. It was originally located in Racine, Wisconsin and opened a plant in Mauston in 1972. The current facility located in the Mauston Industrial Park on Veteran Street was built in 1992.
