Local dignitaries, LB Water board members, company executives, community leaders, and many LB Water employees attended to hear about the new building and get personal tours.
Shawn Pulford, LB Water's CEO, spoke to the attendees about the company's accomplishments and his vision for the future:
"The LB Water Founders Building in Selinsgrove is a source of pride for our entire company. Over the years, we've worked diligently alongside contractors to ensure this space withstands the demands of our growth, both for employees internally and for the expanding needs of our customers."
The Founders Building was completed and occupied in April. It provides office and collaboration space as well as cutting-edge media technology and connectivity. The three-story, 24,000-square-foot building also includes the capacity to satisfy long-term goals for the expanding employee-owned company.
Co-founder Walt VanNuys spoke on key milestones:
"This building is the result of all your hard work," he said to the attendees, made up of many LB Water employee owners. "We've been very fortunate to have a great many talented people help LB Water in our journey. We continue to benefit from contributions from our community's most insightful leaders."
For over 50 years, LB Water has serviced contractors and municipalities. The new corporate site gives LB Water's employees the space they need to fulfill the growing needs of their customers. The expansion further promotes the company's reputation for exceptional customer service, expansive inventory, and expert training.
