Messer Canada hosts anniversary event

On April 25, Messer Canada celebrated its organization’s 75th anniversary in Canada with an exclusive event for its teams and select customers. The event featured support, displays, and seminars hosted by key vendors represented by the company, such as Lincoln Electric, Miller Electric, Bohler, and Hypertherm. More than 200 people attended the event.

We spoke to Messer Canada’s PGP Sales Director, Karl Villeneuve about the 75th anniversary event. “It’s all about the people,” he said. “Without the right people we would never have achieved this milestone. We have a culture at Messer where we really empower our people. We help them grow and like to promote from within. It’s a very specialized industry, so people are key to make that work.

“What is very important to us is collaboration,” he continued. “I really like bringing great collaborators to our team. Transparency is also key, among our team and with customers. An event like this, where we are bringing representatives in from across Canada, along with vendors and customers, it’s a chance to bring those relationships to another level here in our home facility. When you have that face-to-face connection, you know you’re going to go that extra mile.”
