in the industry is incredible,” Josh says. “I highly doubt there is any other supply house out there that gets more. I think that says a lot about how people see us.” Ron Stauffer, International Sales Manager, joined the company in 1993. Back then, he was personally attracted by the company’s longevity and their history of growth. Today, the company’s is even more longstanding, and they’re still growing, so he believes the same factors apply. “I think most people look at Lehman as a career, not just a job,” Ron says. “They value that it’s a place where they can grow and develop. Once they join, they don’t want to leave.” Alex Cosio, Domestic Sales Manager, has been with the business since 2002. He says that what’s retained him is the emphasis on collaboration. “Everyone is really involved,” he says. “Everyone gets a say. That’s the culture here. We all work together to achieve the same goals.” Lehman Pipe also works together with their suppliers and vendors. Again, Dennis says those relationships tend to be very-longstanding and very collaborative. An example is Wheatland Tube – a company that’s been around even longer than Lehman Pipe, and has established a similar legacy of customer service. They produce a wide range of steel tubular products and their processes make them simple and easy to work with. They are the kind of reliable supplier that makes Lehman Pipe reliable in turn. Moving forward, Lehman Pipe’s goal is to continue working together, with employees, with customers, and with suppliers like Wheatland. Their hope is that their 75 years of excellence is just the beginning. “We’re not going anywhere,” Dennis says. “This business is going to continue long past me. I am very, very lucky, and very fortunate, to have such an amazing young team. They’re going to keep it going for a long time. We already have the structure in place.” “And we’re going to keep getting better,” he concludes. “That’s what matters. We’ve been increasing in size every year, and we expect that to continue, but that’s not what drives us. It’s not imperative that we get bigger. It’s imperative that we get better.” DECEMBER 2023 THE CONSTRUCTION SOURCE AMERICA - SOUTH For more on Lehman Pipe Supply, their extended history, the markets they serve, and their vast range of products – and to get in touch with their team – visit www.lehmanpipe.com/
