Founders
Dick Culy & Marion Shore |
Magna
Machine & Tool Company Inc., was formed in September
1975 when Marion Shore and Dick Culy decided to form
a partnership and start a tool shop. They drew their
first paychecks in January 1976 and hired the first
full time employee (Eugene
Weaver) later that spring.
In June, 1990, Eugene Weaver and Mike Broyles became partners. Marion retired in 1995, the same year Magna received its ISO 9001 Certification.
Magna was one of the first five companies in Indiana to be awarded the Indiana Business Modernization and Technology Award for quality and customer service. When Dick retired in 2000, he left Magna in the capable hands of Gene, Mike, and a great group of employees.
In June of 2005, Eugene and Mike
asked long-time employees Kirk Robbins, Bruce Schmidt,
and Doug Hinshaw to become partners in Magna Machine
& Tool. By doing this Magna will be providing
both their employees and
its customers with a long term and stable management
group.
