Hot Off the Press!
Today marks an important date in AME history – our anniversary! 15 years ago, 4 of us started a new venture, probably a bit unsure of what we were truly getting into. It’s likely good that we did not know what obstacles and pitfalls we’d have to deal with in the coming years, as it may have been enough to stop us before we got started. Looking back, it’s been an incredible run. We’ve had some fortune and good luck along the way, but largely our business has been mostly impacted by people – the 4 founders, Tim Benoist, Luis Goyeneche, Brett Waggoner and myself; countless employees who acted in the best interest of the company, the families who helped out as needed during the early years, customers who took a chance and did business with us early on, vendors who took a chance on an upstart, strategic partners within the industry who hitched their wagon to AME and countless others who have all been a part of our journey to this point. As we look to the next 5 and 10 years, I have an overwhelming feeling of gratitude – thankful to have been surrounded and influenced by so many great people and excited to continue the journey. On behalf of our 44 employees, we sincerely thank you for allowing us the opportunity to work with you on a daily basis!
Until next month,
Keith
