Press release submitted on behalf of Slide.
Slide Products is proud to announce the promotion of Aaron Gibson as the new company President. Aaron’s legacy traces back to 1993, when Slide was just starting to expand, beginning his career as a part-time production line worker. Throughout the 30 years he’s been with the team, Aaron has had the opportunity to work in various positions including handling chemical production, operating as a maintenance technician, running the production line and overseeing the quality department. In each of these roles he was able to be hands-on in learning and gaining reputable knowledge, becoming a valuable component to the team, company and industry. Most recently, he served the role of being Slide’s General Manager.
The many hats Aaron has worn throughout his time at Slide have reflected the true dedication, commitment and value that he brings. We spoke with him about his new role: “I want to follow in the steps of former President Michael Muth and the Harms family, improve anywhere I can, keep Slide Products steadily growing, and continue taking care of the company, our customers and employees.” Aaron’s personable professionalism, extensive industry knowledge, and spearheaded demeanor makes him a perfect leader to take Slide to the next phases of growth.
