Steve Krzes has worked for Fitzpatrick & Weller, Inc. since February, 1972.  A family owned business since 1895, Fitzpatrick & Weller takes pride that we have many long time employees.  But 38 years of service is incredible and we congratulate Steve on all of his achievements.  Steve says, “He appreciates the opportunities that  have been presented to him”.

Many changes in machinery, technology, yield management, the world market and now the difficult economy have presented both challenges and opportunities for Steve.  Starting out as a machine operator, today, Steve wears many hats.  Currently,  he is the Yield Manager, and Quality Control Supervisor, as well as a Trustee for our 401k plan, First Responder and Safety Director.   He organizes and documents all first aid and OSHA training.

Steve enjoys the challenge of meeting specific customer needs both here domestically and for customers that are located all over the world.  He says that meeting customers face to face and getting to know them has been very rewarding for him.
