His contribution to the organization will always be valued and remembered” said CEO, Martin Girga.

A prominent career in manufacturing sales, Yeomans’ most notable experience comes from his time at Anchor Danly where he was responsible for leading their sales team in the Midwest. “I have been in manufacturing and metal forming virtually my whole life. My father and Grandfather both had die shops in Michigan which I worked in throughout high school and college” said Yeomans. Yeomans has spent the last 7 years working his way up at SDS starting as a sales manager, then regional sales manager where he invested time in building SDS’s dynamic sales team.
