News provided by Share this article Share this article PHOENIX, Feb. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Timothy Jeffries, and his wife, Mary Frances Jeffries, co-owners of ChemResearch Company, Inc., unveiled their 2021 plan designed to significantly improve company culture, better compensate employees, increase talent retention, pro-actively engage customers, expand services, elevate quality assurance, and ensure company safety. Mr. Jeffries, who also serves as Chairman and CEO, stated, "CRC has possessed the privilege and responsibility of serving the Aerospace and Defense (A&D) vertical market critical to Arizona's economy and our country's mobility and defense since 1954. Richard Burge, majority owner of CRC for over 20 years, invited me to serve as his Board Chairman in 2008. Richard and I became the best of friends, and when he passed away from ALS on August 25, 2014, my heart was broken. This major corporate restructuring was executed with this deeply personal commitment in mind: I will not fail my brother. With the strong support of our independent directors of the company board, we have already developed a vigorous 90-day-plan to elevate successes for our hard-working employees, our valued customers in all vertical markets, and our local community."
