CONGRATULATIONS TO THE MATRIC GROUP
(Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Matric Group located in Venango County, Pennsylvania.
What originally started out as a hobby by two electrical engineers has now turned into a $60-plus million company with three locations across western Pennsylvania and more than 300 employees.
The Matric Group is celebrating a major milestone this year, 50 years of electronic manufacturing.
The electronics field is developing at lightning speed, and Matric Group has continued to adapt to the ever-growing changes. It is this angle of their businesses which drives them to success.
As customers discover outdated or obsolete components, Matric Group is there to help respin or redesign to keep their current products relevant.
For the past 50 years, Matric Group has been a strong cornerstone in our community. The commitment and determination of President Turner and the entire workforce is admirable.
Congratulations to Rick Turner and the rest of the Matric Group team. May you find success for another 50 years.
