Orthman recently held a Formal training course for its distributor reps, it was well attended they came from all parts of the country; they even got in a little Nebraska football. The focus of the session was product training but also to plug the manufacture reps into high level business discussions on the Orthman model, goals, planning, etc. Our professional rep organizations are an integral part of our business; they are well connected through a series of channels of our organization. Look for a customer training session coming soon.

This will allow us to cut lead times in half while delivering tighter than industry standard tolerances which means a better product for our customers. Orthman Conveying Systems is in a significant growth pattern today due to the separation of its AG division. “Today we have a 110K square foot manufacturing facility that we need to feed”.

The changes are starting to pay off. Orthman Conveying Systems has doubled in sales YOY from 2017 to 2018 with lofty growth goals for 2019 and beyond.
