Former owner celebrates 50 years at Eberl Iron Works
- June 20, 2017
- News Release
- Shop Management
Frank Eberl, who became an official full-time employee at Eberl Iron Works in June 1967, recently celebrated his 50th anniversary with the company, a Buffalo, N.Y.-based manufacturer and distributor that offers custom metal fabrication and Unistrut metal framing products.
After graduating with a bachelor’s degree in accounting from Canisius College in May 1967, Eberl learned nearly every facet of his family’s business firsthand. He started out as a saw operator and shear helper, progressed to material handler, and then to counter service for walk-in customers. By 1970 he was in charge of house accounts, transporting samples in his first company car. In 1982 he and his brother George became second-generation owners of Eberl Iron Works.
While working full time, he earned a master’s degree in education and an MBA from Canisius College. Together with George, Frank led Eberl Iron Works through significant growth during the late 20th and early 21st centuries. In addition to Systems Installation, the Traffic Safety Products and Rooftop Support Systems divisions were established
.The family’s third generation assumed ownership in January 2012, when George’s son John C. Eberl became CEO and Frank’s daughter Nora E. Eberl was named CFO.
