Yesterday, six members of our team had the chance to visit the Amada America facility in High Point, North Carolina, and what an incredible experience it was!
Representing Fifer were:
• Andrew – Amada Press Brake Operator
• Landon – Amada Laser-Punch Combination Machine Operator
• Walter – Shop Floor Manager
• Miles – Amada Software Programmer
• Jacob Fifer – Next generation of Fifer Sheet Metal
• Jason Fifer – Company President
The knowledge and training we received were incredible, but what meant the most to me was seeing our team grow together. This trip wasn't just about learning more about Amada equipment and software—it was about building a stronger Fifer Sheet Metal team.
When you're traveling together, learning together, and spending time together outside of work, you get to know each other better. You learn how to communicate, trust one another, and have each other's backs. That's how great teams are built.
At the end of the day, we're all in this race together. The success of Fifer Sheet Metal depends on all of us working toward the same goal, helping each other, and each of us holding up our portion of the rope. We aren't just coworkers—we're building a Fifer Sheet Metal brotherhood.
I couldn't be prouder of these guys for taking advantage of every minute they had with the Amada team. They asked a lot of questions tailored to the work we do at FSM, what a great OPPORTUNITY!
Thank you to AMADA AMERICA, INC. for the spectacular hospitality, knowledge, and support! You have an awesome team of people, and your company should be proud of them. My guys learned a lot, but what stood out to me most was how willing everyone was to spend time with us and answer questions. We appreciate it more than you know.
I'm honored of where FSM is today, and I'm beyond excited to see where this team takes us next!
