COMMUNITY MINDED, CUSTOMER FOCUSED by Stan Lockhart
It comes as no surprise that a company like DACO
Precision is a leader in their community for noble causes, one
of which is their local chapter of United Way. A few years ago,
you may remember, DACO donated two of their wire EDM
tooling machines, to two local high schools to help create
interest in the manufacturing environment while trying to
develop the next generation of tool and die makers. Everyone
in manufacturing today knows how hard it is to hire and train
these workers that are so vital to a strong manufacturing base
in this country.
And, while we all see players in the NFL and other
professional sports promoting the many great causes of the
United Way, here in the town of Kewaskum, Wisconsin, the
owners of DACO and its employees are dedicating their time
and resources to raising money in the community by
auctioning off various gifts and donations from generous
vendors, workers, suppliers and other individuals. Last year in
2014, DACO was one of only four other companies in their
county to receive 3-separate United Way awards. Randy
BUSINESS FOCUS ARTICLE
THE DISTRIBUTOR’S LINK 53
Weber, president of DACO credits the strong leadership of
Carla Kachellek, their office manager, for orchestrating all the
efforts necessary each year to pull off this remarkable feat.
For those customers that have worked with Carla at one
point or another over the last eighteen years of her time at
DACO, they have witnessed and benefitted from her unselfish
attitude that is so evident in the way she handles her daily
customer service related activities. And, if that is not enough,
Carla and her sister operate a dog rescue organization caring
for and placing homeless dogs with adoptive families. Not one
to search out the spotlight, she will be embarrassed by all the
accolades. But, the real winners are all those that benefit from
the work and dedication of the entire group at DACO Precision.
DACO manufactures special washers, custom stampings
and assemblies at their 64,000 square foot facility in
Kewaskum, Wisconsin, and is dedicated to working with key
distributor partners for Vendor Managed Inventory programs.
They are community minded and customer centered in all
facets of their work and personal lives!
