Robertson Heating Supply Co. (Alliance, OH) celebrated its 75th anniversary with an Expo trade show at its corporate headquarters in May. The trade show featured dealer training sessions, “Hall of Fame” keynote speaker Jeffrey Gitomer and more than 70 vendor booths. In addition, the event included building tours, contests and prizes, and a sit-down lunch.

"I was so proud of our company as I looked out into the crowd of 900+ customers, vendors and employees and reflected on who we are  today and how far we have come in 75 years,” said Scott Robertson, president. “We owe a lot to our company’s founder, my grandfather, John Robertson. My job is to keep building on his strong and excellent foundation and make it  to  100!”
