The Joy Companies, Inc. is excited to announce the acquisition of Mr. Go-Glass, a privately-owned, full-service glass business based on the Delmarva Peninsula. This move was a great opportunity for Joy to further diversify their business and position themselves for smart and sustainable growth through the 21st century. With its similar culture, vision, core values and emphasis on its people, Mr. Go-Glass is the perfect addition to the Joy Companies family!
“Team members, customers, and vendors can expect a virtually identical operating ethos, but with more process improvements, IT and marketing enhancements combined with a future focus that will allow us to better capitalize on growth opportunities,” stated Doug Linderer, who will remain on as President of Go-Glass Joy, LLC.
Brett Towers, who had successfully managed two locations of Go-Glass Corporation, has been named Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Go-Glass Joy, LLC. Brett added that “I’m grateful for the trust and confidence that the Joy organization has placed in me, and look forward to serving our customers as we seek new opportunities and ways to grow the business.”
