The manufacturing firm Morbark Inc., Winn, Mich., has named James Shoemaker president. He replaces Lon Morey, who will remain chairman of the company’s board of directors.
Prior to being named president, Shoemaker served as Morbark’s vice president of operations and a member of the company’s board. He joined Morbark in 2003 as manager of operations and has held numerous positions in the company.
“We are fortunate to have a leader like Shoe, who can step up and move the James Shoemaker company forward during this critical time,” says Morey. “He not only has the extensive operations, accounting, and supply chain experience, which will be instrumental in our global expansion, but he also has extensive experience in change management.”
Morbark has been manufacturing equipment for the forestry, recycling, tree care, sawmill and biomass markets for more than 50 years.
