The average age of PHCP professionals, on both the contracting and distribution ends, falls somewhere around 50. Many of you have served the industry in tremendous ways through lengthy careers and deserve to reach retirement with the peace of mind that you’ve left the PHCP-PVF supply chain in good hands. Unfortunately, that isn’t where we stand today.
Personally, I had no idea I’d end up in this industry, but now have no plans to ever leave. For me, all it took was growing to truly understand that this is the industry that builds our communities and daily lives. Hopefully soon, I’ll be able to watch my Carolina Panthers play in person again at the Bank of America stadium, which is full of pipes, valves and fittings manufactured, sold and distributed by professionals in our industry.
