EMS Announces the Appointment of Mike Swedick as CEO

Eastern Metal Supply (“EMS”), one of the largest value-added distributors of aluminum products in the U.S and a Wynnchurch Capital, L.P. (“Wynnchurch”) portfolio company, announced today the appointment of Mike Swedick to the role of Chief Executive Officer. As part of the transition, Greg Weekes, the co-founder and President of EMS, will remain active in the company and on its Board of Directors.

Mike brings 37 years of experience in wholesale distribution, manufacturing, sales, and marketing. He spent the last ten years at Fortiline Waterworks, one of the leading waterworks companies in the U.S., where he most recently served as President and CEO.
