“Laurence (or as he is better known, Lindy) originally started working for Erb Co. in 2010. Even though he is the son of the owner, and great-great-grandson of the founder of the business in 1900, Lindy hasn't been handed anything! Rather, he started working in the warehouse as a stock boy and has steadily progressed to hold critical positions in the IT and purchasing departments before being promoted early this year to the commercial plumbing sales department,” says Pete Murray, CFO, Erb Company.
