91 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 10, ISSUE 6 POWERMAT IC ASSOCIATES Solis Jr says. “To see the smiles on their faces and to have the opportunity to celebrate with them is something that makes me proud of the work we do and what we represent.” With those financial rewards in mind, the employee mentality is to act like a vested owner. Because of that, employees are encouraged to share ideas and improvements with their manager and are rewarded for implementing ideas that provide value. Locations and growth opportunities Powermatic has four convenient U.S. office locations, in California and Texas. They give the organization the ability to consult and utilize individuals with specific skill sets and expertise from around the country. Some of its four locations are in the midst of current expansions. Powermatic is adding 6,000 square feet of space at its Singapore location. It will host a Grand Reopening of its Texas location later in 2023 which includes a 12,000-square- foot expansion. The fourth office just opened in Anaheim, Calif. in February 2023. These expansions and openings will help Powermatic to be even more responsive to its customers while addressing increases in demand. New employee owners will be hired for a full range of positions, including designers, engineers, sales professionals, and other back-office staff. “Again, it comes down to the value add we provide,” Nudo III says. “Right now, some of our suppliers are having a tough time getting parts and we can provide that solution in part because we are sitting on a significant amount of inventory. We are confident that with the growth we are seeing, all of our (team members) at our locations will remain busy.” Rudy Solis Jr Frank Nudo III
