Tempest Technology welcomes a new company President, Johan Gidstedt. He comes to Tempest with over 15 years’ experience in the manufacturing industry. Johan has an engineering background, Master’s degree in Business Administration, and years of operational experience as President of Borga Steel Buildings and Components.
Hailing originally from Sweden, Johan has been a long time resident of the San Joaquin Valley in California. He just completed his second official week at Tempest, and has already begun to fit in seamlessly with the culture of the company which roots deep into the fire industry. Much of Johan’s past two weeks have been spent diligently studying the industry, the company, and planning for the road ahead. He has large shoes to fill as Leroy Coffman, the previous Tempest President, was a strong catalyst in the company’s tremendous success. Tempest’s employees are looking toward Johan to continue the fast-paced growth the company has experienced throughout its 25 years of service.
“Johan brings experience and expertise in the areas of manufacturing and engineering that will allow Tempest to take full advantage of new market opportunities. His style of customer-focused management is well suited to the culture of Tempest Technology Corp,” Previous Tempest President Leroy Coffman states. Leroy is just weeks from finishing his Master’s degree in Business Administration and is taking this time to pursue other interests and more time with family. He will still be involved with Tempest Technology Corp. in an ownership role as time moves forward.
