RIDGID Marks its 100-Year Anniversary with Celebration at Elyria, Ohio, Headquarters
Employees, retirees and their families were invited to enjoy festivities at an open house event
RIDGID is celebrating a major milestone this year: 100 years of designing and building innovative tools trusted on job sites around the world and handed down from generation to generation. On Saturday, July 29, the company commemorated the occasion by inviting employees past and present, along with their families, to an open house event filled with food, music, entertainment, children’s activities, plant tours and more. Nearly 1,000 employees, retirees and their family members attended the festivities.
“All year we have been celebrating our anniversary alongside our customers and tradespeople around the world,” said Craig Sumner, president of professional tools for Emerson. “Bringing the celebration home to our Elyria headquarters was a great way for us to gather with the people who made our 100-year milestone possible: our employees, retirees and their families. These are the people who built and continue to build the products that set us apart.”
