Fifty years ago, our company started as a small machine shop in Merrill, Michigan, where my dad ran the equipment, my mom kept the books and the whole family made deliveries of auto parts in the family station wagon.

We’ve grown since then — from a supplier to companies that are global leaders, to a company that leads the way. We’re known as the company that will tackle challenges others can’t handle: The company where anything is possible.

Now, we’ve gone through another evolution. We are now One MERRILL. We’ve brought all of our divisions under one umbrella, making us more efficient, more effective and even better able to support our customers’ needs in an increasingly competitive market. One MERRILL better reflects who we are as a team. Unified, integrated and stronger together.

That’s because for us, teamwork is more than just a concept. It is a foundation for our every day operations and it’s how we approach our decisions about responsibility and accountability. It determines how we interact with one another and our customers, suppliers and strategic partners.

Today, we stand poised for the next fifty years. Thank you for being part of it.

Sincerely,
Robert Yackel
