Meet the Chairman’s Circle: Scott Ayers, CFO of Hunter Fan

April 28, 2025 by Diamond Young

Scott Ayers is Memphis through and through.  He’s a lifelong Memphian who lives in Arlington now.  He earned his BBA in accounting and MBA from the University of Memphis.  During high school and college, he worked all over the city – Putt-Putt Golf and Games, Stepherson’s Big Star, the Memphis Zoo and AutoZone Park.  “I’ve literally worked everywhere in Memphis,” he said.  And his favorite movie?  It’s the quintessential Memphis movie The Firm.  “I still will stop and watch The Firm whenever I come across it on TV,” he said.  “It’s so much fun seeing how Memphis looked 30+ years ago and seeing what’s changed and what’s stayed the same!”

After graduating from the University of Memphis, Scott earned his CPA license.  He started his career at Ernst & Young as an auditor where he served clients and Chairman’s Circle investors AutoZone, Mueller Industries and Dunavant Enterprises.  He also worked for Ernst & Young as the recruiting coordinator at the University of Memphis.  “My time at Ernst & Young afforded me the opportunity to work with a diverse group of businesses and individuals and helped further solidify my love and appreciation for all things Memphis,” he said.

Early in his career, Scott worked as the corporate accounting manager at MAA, another Chairman’s Circle investor.  There he gained experience in corporate accounting and SEC public company filings.  He then worked as director of profitability reporting and analysis at Evergreen Packaging, a multinational manufacturing company.  “These experiences gave me a diverse accounting and finance background that ultimately led me to Hunter Fan Company,” he said.  Scott started as director of accounting and was promoted to CFO after just four years.  He still holds that position today.

Hunter Fan Company was founded in Fulton, N.Y., in 1886.  The company moved its manufacturing plant to Memphis in 1946 to take advantage of industrial expansion in the South after World War II.  Today Memphis is home to Hunter Fan’s corporate headquarters, with 150 local employees and 250 worldwide.  Hunter Fan has a light manufacturing and assembly plant for its industrial fan division in Smyrna, Tenn., a distribution center in Byhalia, Miss., and sales offices in Mexico, Canada and Europe.

Hunter Fan has been recognized by The Commercial Appeal as a top workplace six years in a row.  The company has also been recognized as a top workplace by USA Today, and Newsweek named the company one of America’s most-loved workplaces and a global most-loved workplace.

“At Hunter Fan we recommitted to our long-term future with Memphis via our recently renovated headquarters, which includes more than $1 million in improved community space, conference rooms, expansion of our Hunter Museum and upgraded furniture,” Scott said.  “We have strengthened our ties to the Memphis community through our involvement with the Chairman’s Circle and by partnering with various community organizations including the University of Memphis, St. Jude and the Dorothy Day House.”

In addition to his involvement with the various organizations supported by Hunter, Scott teaches the high school boys Sunday School Connect class at Bartlett Baptist Church, where he recently took a group of students on a mission trip to the Dominican Republic.  He is also treasurer of the Arlington High School soccer booster club.

And what excites him most about Memphis today?  “All of its potential!” he said.  “Memphis is now on the national radar for growth potential, steady workforce, location and natural resources that will continue to elevate the city as we strive to meet our full potential.”

Scott knows about the importance of potential.  His dad saw it in him at an early age, and it led Scott to a wonderful career.  “My father gave me some of the best advice I’ve carried with me my entire adult life.  The first was very practical.  As a kid, I collected baseball cards.  I would keep up with their value and track the gains and losses.  After my dad saw a handwritten spreadsheet of all my data, he said, ‘You should be an accountant.’  As a fourth grader, I didn’t know exactly what that meant.  But I carried it with me and eventually took a few accounting and personal finance classes in high school and fell in love with the work!

“The other advice my dad gave me was just before I started working at Ernst & Young.  His advice was simple yet profound.  It was simply to ‘Be sure and show up.’  What he meant was to be present, in the moment, and look for ways to stand out,” Scott said.

Scott is married to his high school sweetheart, Tina Ayers, who works with kindergarteners at Arlington Elementary School.  “We have two beautiful daughters, Gabbey, who is 18 and a freshman at Mississippi College, and Briley, who is 15 and a freshman at Arlington High School.”

The family is planning a first this summer: a vacation to Florida with their 105-pound Labrador, Bo.  When they’re at home, the family enjoys sports.  “We are huge Memphis Tiger fans!” he said.  “We’ve held season tickets in football and basketball for as long as I can remember and enjoy the occasional road trip to watch our Tigers play.”

Get to know the Chairman’s Circle: Chris Carr, Senior Partner, C.A.T. Global

March 27, 2025 by Diamond Young

Chris Carr has experience that’s given him insights into both sides of the supply chain, which isn’t surprising considering he studied business, sales, logistics and transportation at UT Knoxville.

After graduation, he returned to Memphis and started his career at MS Carriers/MS Logistics.  That company later merged with five other major logistics firms to form Transplace.com, a dynamic startup-like environment with an impressive customer base. At Transplace, Chris gained invaluable experience in both the logistics and carrier sides of the industry and connected with inspiring leaders and CEOs from North America’s top trucking companies.

He later went to work for Williams-Sonoma, a pivotal move that introduced him to the customer side of supply chain management. There he joined a talented team tasked with bringing all transportation operations in-house, which challenged him with a steep but rewarding learning curve.

While at Williams-Sonoma, Chris built strong relationships with carriers nationwide, including C.A.T., a Canadian carrier. That connection led to an exciting opportunity in 2005, when Chris partnered to launch a Memphis office for C.A.T. with just 25 trucks.

“Growing the fleet to over 50 was a dream come true, though the 2008-2009 financial crisis forced us to make tough decisions,” said Chris.  “We pivoted to a fully non-asset model, and in 2010, we rebranded as C.A.T. Global, with Memphis as the flagship branch. Over the past 15 years, we’ve steadily grown and thrived here.”

Today C.A.T. Global is a North American logistics provider serving the U.S., Canada and Mexico. The company employs 25 in the Memphis office, with a broader presence across the continent.  Chris is the company’s senior partner.

Chris was born and raised in Memphis and attended CBHS before heading to UT Knoxville, where he earned a degree in logistics and transportation, now known as supply chain management.  After graduating from UT, he returned to Memphis and married Hallie Carr.  They have three children:  Hudson, Macie and Hayes. Hudson plays golf at Spring Hill College, Macie is a senior at Hutchison planning to attend the University of Georgia, and Hayes has followed his dad’s footsteps and is a sophomore at CBHS.

Chris looks to his wife for strength.  “My wife, Hallie, is my rock. She keeps me steady and grounded, especially when life gets chaotic—her influence is unmatched.”

Chris and Hallie own a home on 30A in Florida, which Chris says is the family’s “go-to escape where we unwind and soak in the beach’s natural beauty.”  Chris said he loves hitting the golf course, skiing down slopes and casting a line while fishing.  “Each helps me recharge in its own way,” he said.  Chris also said he’s “drawn to business and finance reads—standouts include Good to Great for its timeless leadership insights, The Psychology of Money for its fresh take on wealth and How to Make a Few Billion Dollars for its bold perspective.”

Chris is decidedly pro-Memphis, and C.A.T. Global’s investment in the Chairman’s Circle reflects that.  “Memphis feels real—its authenticity and untapped potential are what inspire me most about this city,” he said.  “We joined the Chairman’s Circle to connect with other Memphis businesses needing reliable freight solutions across North America. Our company is deeply committed to this city—we’re proud to support the local community and contribute to its growth as an authentic, opportunity-rich hub.”

Meet the Chairman’s Circle: Dana Pointer, CEO, Preserver Partners

February 25, 2025 by Diamond Young

Preserver Partners is a diverse-owned and women-led Memphis investment management firm whose leadership reflects the clients the firm serves. And Memphis-born Dana Pointer, Preserver Partners’ CEO for the past two years, has been there from the beginning.

Dana joined Dr. Floyd Tyler as he founded the company in 2009. She served as chief operating officer and chief compliance officer before becoming CEO in January 2023 following the sudden and unexpected death of Dr. Tyler.

“My biggest career achievement was successfully stabilizing the firm by retaining a majority of our clients following the devastating loss of my partner, achieved with the dedicated support of my team,” she said.

Dana has spent three decades working in finance, compliance and management roles in the investment industry.

She joined First Tennessee Bank as a staff accountant immediately after graduating from the University of Tennessee Martin. She was soon promoted to work in accounting at what is now FHN Capital Markets, where she quickly became interested in and excited about investments and compliance. Within a year she became a licensed compliance officer. After 15 years with FHN, she decided to act on her entrepreneurial spirit and join Dr. Tyler as he started Preserver Partners.

Memphis-based Preserver Partners has a team of five managing institutional assets for clients nationwide. Preserver manages assets for public pension plans, endowments, foundations, corporations and family offices. Long-time local clients include MLGW Retirement Plan, Shelby County Retirement Plan, Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare and Christian Community Foundation.

“Our passion and commitment to giving back to the Memphis community led Preserver to start Preserver Partners Foundation in 2018,” Dana said. “The foundation supports organizations and programs doing great work in education, economic development and social justice.”

Dana’s personal passion aligns with the foundation’s – financial literacy and economic empowerment. That passion has led her to serve on boards including the Downtown Memphis Commission’s Center City Revenue Finance Corp., MATA and RISE Memphis.

She also champions Preserver’s investment in the Chairman’s Circle. “Aside from our city’s rich history and charm, I am excited about the endless possibilities of growth the Chamber helps create,” she said.

She’s also passionate about her family. “My husband, Levi, is a phenomenal partner,” she said. “We are each other’s biggest cheerleaders. He encourages me to pursue big goals and provides the grounding and balance that helps keep me sane! I’m incredibly proud of my two young adult children, Landon and Demi. Their intellect and thoughtfulness have shaped them into very confident individuals. It’s so inspiring to watch them grow and navigate life with such clarity and purpose.”

She encourages her family with the best advice she’s received herself: You don’t have to be twice a good, just be yourself!

Dana and her family enjoy vacationing “anywhere there’s an ocean,” and says she “LOVES listening to music. It allows me to unplug and clear my mind! My favorite genres are gospel and hip-hop/rap! LOL.” She’s also an avid reader. She’s currently reading Traction by Gino Wickman. “It’s been very helpful in taking Preserver to the next level,” she said. “My overarching professional goal is to achieve long-term success for both clients and the firm by building strong, trust-based relationships with clients and industry leaders, generating returns that exceed client expectations and growing the business sustainably.”

Meet the Chairman’s Circle: Chris Bird, Chairman, The Dillard Companies

January 29, 2025 by Diamond Young

Back in the day when matchbooks were popular, Chris Bird used a rubber stamp to imprint his contact information on them to promote his lawn-mowing business. Before that, he operated a drink stand by the neighborhood tennis court. And in college, he started a company with the lofty name of 1520 Enterprises Unlimited to loan money to fellow students who had a short-term need, similar to today’s payday and title loan businesses.

“When I was in grade school, there was always a candy sale at school or for the baseball team,” Chris said. “I was always the top seller because I would invest in some product myself and use it as free samples. People couldn’t say no to a kid giving away free candy.”

In other words, Chris Bird has always been interested in business, sales and marketing.

He was born in Port Arthur, Texas, and grew up in Dallas. Chris moved to Memphis in 1986 after graduating from UT Knoxville with a bachelor’s degree in engineering and philosophy.

After college, he passed the life insurance licensing exam then started a series of very different businesses: software design and consulting; buying, improving, developing and selling real property; and architectural consulting, with major projects that included Peabody Place, Target House and FedExForum.

 

Then, after a chance meeting between Chris Bird and John Dillard Jr. at Memphis Rotary in 2000, the two agreed that Chris would buy Dillard Door and Specialty Company from the retiring Dillard. Chris took $75,000 in savings and a personal note from Dillard to capitalize the new company.

At the time, the company had 12 employees and about $2 million in revenue. Chris became president of the company, which provides commercial perimeter security products and services. In just five years, Chris had grown the company, which he renamed Dillard Door and Security, to 50 employees and $6 million in revenue. Today Dillard Companies has more than $25 million in revenue and more than 120 employees in Memphis and Florida, where high-dollar mansion owners are big customers of the overhead doors Dillard sells. Since then, spin-offs of strong pieces of the business and acquisitions have continued to shape the business that years ago installed the gates at Graceland.

In 2019, Chris was inducted into the Society of Entrepreneurs. Today he serves on that board and is active in other organizations including Regional One Health Foundation, Calvary Episcopal Church, Door and Hardware Institute, Construction Specifications Institute, Morrison Architectural Scholarship Fund at the UofM, Memphis Heritage, NFIB

State Leadership Council and Crime Stoppers. He also remains active in Memphis Rotary, where that chance meeting with John Dillard Jr. started it all.

Chris and Dillard Companies are also Chairman’s Circle investors. “Being part of the Chairman’s Circle offers us invaluable opportunities including direct involvement in key task forces and committees shaping Memphis’ economic future,” he said. “We benefit from exclusive access to meetings with political influencers and private events, as well as concierge access to expert teams in economic development and governmental affairs. This significantly enhances our growth and visibility. Overall, the Chairman’s Circle provides a platform for strategic networking, influence and long-term success. And it’s fun, too!”

Chris and his wife Helen have three children. He enjoys hunting, wine, gourmet cooking, UT sports, Grizzlies basketball, Redbirds baseball, travel and music.

Greater Memphis Chamber Members To Receive Exclusive Discounts on Cigna Healthcare Plans

January 7, 2025 by Diamond Young

MEMPHIS, TN. Tuesday, January 7, 2024 – Chamber Benefits, Inc. (CBI), a subsidiary of The Greater Memphis Chamber, announced today that the Chamber has teamed up with Cigna Healthcare to offer health plans designed to improve health and help lower costs for area businesses. CBI was created to provide member businesses with high-quality and affordable solutions on essential business expenditures.

“We are pleased to team up with the Chamber and CBI to provide affordable health benefits plans to help improve health and vitality for Memphis companies, their employees, and families,” said John Webb, Cigna Healthcare TriSouth president. “Our personalized products and solutions lead to more predictable costs, and we know that a healthier, stronger, and more productive workforce is essential for business success.”

Cigna Healthcare plans designed for small to mid-sized businesses are fully integrated, with medical, behavioral, and pharmacy benefits included.

Charles Elliott: A Legacy Rooted in Memphis, Leading Blue Suede Networks into the Future

December 17, 2024 by Diamond Young

For Chairman’s Circle investor Charles Elliott, the path from Memphis’s historic Klondike neighborhood to the helm of Blue Suede Networks has been one shaped by resilience, purpose and deep community ties. “I was born in Memphis, raised in Klondike,” Elliott says with pride. He’s a graduate of Central High School, a community cornerstone where he began to understand both the challenges and opportunities that come with growing up in Memphis.

Elliott went on to earn a BA in applied physics from Morehouse College and later an MBA from Clark Atlanta University. But he didn’t stop there. His appetite for knowledge led him to complete the Minority Enterprise Business program at Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College and to the cusp of earning a Master of Divinity from Memphis Theological Seminary.

“I’m an inveterate learner,” he reflects, his journey marked by a commitment to education and growth.

His earliest years were spent in Frayser, a community that helped spark his aspirations. Through initiatives like the CLUE program and INROADS, Elliott found inspiration and the tools to shape a meaningful career. “INROADS changed everything for me,” he recalls, describing his first job with BellSouth, a role that introduced him to technology and financial independence. “I earned more money in one summer than my mother—a dedicated social worker—earned in a year. It showed me technology was not only a path for me, but also a way to build the life I wanted for my future family.”

Elliott’s career has been both impactful and varied. Before joining Blue Suede Networks as CEO in 2023, he held roles as

managing principal of National Infrastructure Group, vice president of information technology and administrative services at LeMoyne-Owen College and director of service operations at Memphis Networx. Now, leading Blue Suede Networks, Elliott is focused on one of the city’s most ambitious digital projects yet: creating a connected Memphis.

“Memphis is at an inflection point,” he shares with a tone of optimism. “We’re seeing companies think of Memphis differently, and they’re choosing to invest here—not just in our economy, but in our people.” For Elliott, the potential for digital infrastructure is tied directly to economic growth. “Data from the Federal Reserve, Deloitte, and the World Bank shows that a 10 percent increase in broadband penetration can drive up to 1.5 percent GDP growth and increase jobs by 20 percent.”

Blue Suede Networks’ goal? To help Memphis become a national leader in digital inclusion and opportunity. With one of the city’s largest private investments to date, they’re

partnering with the City of Memphis to pass fiber infrastructure to at least 85 percent of all business and residential properties, ensuring low-income communities are equally served.

“We’re a Memphis-based company through and through,” Elliott said, emphasizing that the company is not only building infrastructure, but also nurturing local partnerships. In collaboration with the Mid-South Minority Business Council Continuum, the Black Business Association of Memphis, Allworld, ProTec and the Greater Memphis Chamber, Blue Suede Networks has established relationships with Memphis-based MWBE businesses, guaranteeing their involvement in the fiber project.

The work is complex, requiring tenacity, but Elliott finds purpose in its challenges. Outside his role as CEO, he has served as pastor at Golden United Methodist Church for nearly two decades. “Building this network and shepherding my congregation are two sides of the same coin,” he said. “It’s all about service to others and creating a stronger, more connected Memphis.”

Yet for Elliott, family remains at the heart of everything he does. “My greatest joy is my family,” he said, reflecting on his 28 years of marriage to Tammy, four children and the support they provide. They are, as he puts it, “the reason I do what I do.”

In every role he’s held, in every community he’s served, Elliott’s mission is clear: a connected Memphis, built on opportunity, inclusion and hope for the future.

Meet the Chairman’s Circle: Ashley McDurmon

November 20, 2024 by Diamond Young

In June, Orion Federal Credit Union announced that Ashley McDurmon would become its president and CEO on Jan. 1, following the retirement of Daniel Weickenand. Ashley has 20 years of financial services experience and has been Orion’s EVP and CFO since 2019. Before joining Orion, she was a partner at HORNE LLP, where she led the financial institutions practices group and was one of the youngest female partners in the company’s history.

Ashley earned her accounting degree from Freed Hardeman University and is a graduate of the Southeastern School of Banking. She is a Certified Public Accountant and a member of the American Institute of Public Accountants, and serves on the board and as treasurer of the Overton Park Shell and on the Memphis Symphony Orchestra’s Circle of Friends.

Throughout her career, Ashley has developed a deep passion for community-based financial institutions and the critical economic role they serve in neighborhoods. “Banking institutions are the hub of economic activity and development in our communities. What a gift it is to lead Orion, a customer-owned financial institution that is uniquely positioned to serve individuals, families and businesses as they realize their biggest financial goals and life dreams,” she said.

We asked Ashley to share her story. This is what she told us:

Where did you grow up?
I grew up in the tiny rural town of Lexington, in West Tennessee, with my two sisters. While the rest of my family still calls Lexington home, I decided to explore beyond our roots! My mom worked as a banker, so I spent countless afternoons in the back office of the bank, learning the world of finance. That early exposure made me feel right at home in the banking industry. I was always intrigued to see how banking connects businesses, consumers and the government, creating a vibrant community. At Orion, I see us as the economic engine driving growth, collaboration and a sense of belonging across our city.

When did you move to Memphis?

I became a proud Memphian in 2019 when I joined the Orion executive team as EVP and CFO. From day one, I immediately fell in love with Memphis. This city is bursting with heritage, soul and an incredible spirit.

What was your early career path?

After graduating from Freed Hardeman University in 2004 with a degree in accounting, I jumped into my career at HORNE LLP as an associate in their banking practice. Over the

next 15 years, I had the privilege of working with banks and credit unions across the Southeast. I was admitted to the partnership at HORNE in January 2014 and led HORNE’s financial institutions practice from 2016 to 2019.  Through my years in public accounting, I also was able to lead some of HORNE’s most strategic culture initiatives including sponsorship and advocacy. It was through this initiative that I developed a passion for mentoring and supporting women in business. I also started the feedback movement at HORNE, an intentional program designed to grow and develop talent by understanding how to effectively give and receive feedback.

What can you tell us about Orion?

At Orion, we’re all about growth, development and giving back to our Memphis community. With 10 branches and more than 200 local employees in the Memphis metro area, we truly embody the idea that “a better Memphis is a better Orion.” Our executive team and board are deeply committed to partnering with local businesses, charities and schools, making a direct impact in the neighborhoods where we live, work and play. Orion has customers in all 50 states. While we do not have brick and mortar branches on a national scale, we have the ability to do business nationally.

What can you share about Orion’s commitment to Memphis?

As an organization, we are deeply committed to advancing Memphis specifically by investing in the financial well-being of its residents and businesses. Through affordable loans, financial literacy tools and personalized services, we empower individuals and families to achieve their financial goals. Through partnerships with local organizations, we continue to support economic development and community revitalization.

What excites you about Memphis?

What excites me most about Memphis is its commitment to innovation and revitalization. The energy around local initiatives and small businesses is inspiring, and I’m proud to be part of a community that’s dedicated to making Memphis a better place for everyone.

What would you like to share about your family?

The powerful and successful Dolly Parton once said, “Never get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life,” and that resonates with me deeply. I have the most supportive family that motivates me and inspires me each and every day. You will often find me hanging out or “making a life” with my husband Lon and our two daughters, Bella and Lily. We love to cook, cheer on the Grizzlies and travel in our spare time. My family is a big part of who I am. I have a wonderful husband and two daughters who inspire me every day. Balancing my career and family has taught me so much personally and professionally.

What’s your favorite way to unwind?

My husband and I love to travel, so most days you will find me exploring a new city or making plans to explore something new. I also enjoy tennis, walks on a sunny fall day and quality time with my family to keep me grounded and recharged. In my free time, I enjoy

traveling, trying to play tennis and spending time with my loved ones. Quality time with my friends and family keeps me grounded and recharged.

Where’s your favorite place to go on vacation?

My favorite vacation spot is Paris, France. I love the city’s rich history, stunning architecture, food and culture. The city has become a favorite of my family because there is so much to see and do!

AAON Announces Expansion Plans to Increase Production Capacity With New Facility In Memphis, Tennessee

November 14, 2024 by Diamond Young

TULSA, OK, November 14, 2024 – AAON, Inc. (NASDAQ:  AAON) (including its affiliates, “AAON” or the “Company”), a leader in high-performing, energy-efficient HVAC solutions that bring long-term value to customers and owners, is pleased to announce the expansion of the Company’s production capacity with the purchase of a new 787,000 square foot facility in Memphis, Tennessee. This facility will primarily facilitate the growing demand from the data center market and is projected to create 828 skilled jobs at this location over the next five years of operation. The expansion will also add geographic diversification to AAON’s current manufacturing footprint, mitigating certain operational risks and better serving our data center customers.

This facility will manufacture various types of thermal management equipment for data centers under the BASX brand, including air-cooled systems, computer room air handlers (CRAHs), direct evaporative coolers, and liquid cooling distribution units (CDUs), both liquid-to-liquid and liquid-to-air. The facility is expected to have limited production in early 2025 and be fully operational in approximately 12 months.

“The expansion of our production capacity through the purchase of this new facility marks a new chapter for AAON,” said Gary Fields, AAON CEO, “Not only will this allow us to continue to capitalize on the rapidly growing data center market, it demonstrates the commitment we have to our data center customers and the confidence we have in the vertical strategy of this market. At the same time, we are thrilled to bring new jobs and investment to the Memphis community and look forward to seeing the positive impact it will have on both our company and the local economy.”

“After a rigorous due diligence process that included an intricate site search and detailed analysis of costs, risks, and return on investment, we are thrilled to announce the purchase of this new facility,” said Matt Tobolski, AAON President, and COO, “This new capacity will ensure we are able to meet the growing demands from our data center customers, while also generating compelling returns on invested capital for our shareholders. To date, AAON has successfully supplied the highest performing, most efficient thermal management solutions to this end-market, and we look forward to continued success in the future.”

AAON leadership extends appreciation to the State of Tennessee, the City of Memphis, the Greater Memphis Chamber, and Memphis & Shelby County EDGE. These impressive organizations, with top-notch teams and competitive programs, were helpful in our decision and we look forward to collaborative partnerships.

“Building a robust recruitment pipeline requires strong relationships with both industry leaders and our economic development partners,” said City of Memphis Mayor Paul Young, “Welcoming AAON to Memphis represents a significant step toward making our market even more competitive on a national level. With AAON’s commitment, we are enhancing our local economy and elevating Memphis as a destination for high-quality jobs and sustainable industry growth.”

“Memphis is gaining recognition for its speed and agility in attracting businesses. Paired with our diverse workforce and manufacturing talent, Memphis is America’s newest high-tech hub—the Digital Delta,” said Ted Townsend, President & CEO of the Greater Memphis Chamber, “AAON embodies a new chapter for Memphis. As a dynamic, high job-creation company with a focus on data centers, we are proud to welcome them to the Digital Delta.”

“Memphis continues to prove itself as a vibrant hub for economic growth and opportunity,” said Dr. Joann Massey, EDGE President, and CEO, “We are committed to welcoming innovative companies, like AAON, that invest in our community and support the creation of new jobs, further strengthening the city’s position as a key player in the manufacturing and industrial sectors.”

AAON was represented in their site selection and real estate negotiations by John Beach and Susan Arledge, SIOR with Newmark, a global real estate service provider to large global corporations and other occupiers of commercial real estate.

Get to know the Chairman’s Circle: Jason Neal

October 31, 2024 by Diamond Young

Any time the Grizzlies play the Lakers at FedEx Forum, Grizzlies fans are reminded of the loyalty of Lakers fans when the purple and gold Lakers colors seem to be on jerseys and T-shirts throughout the arena. Jason Neal used to be a Lakers fan. But he’s now a Grizzlies fan. That alone is a win for Memphis. Even more important than that is the power equipment manufacturing facility in Memphis under the leadership of Jason Neal. Jason is president of Hyosung HICO and senior EVP of HICO America. HICO is a top supplier of power transformers and shunt reactors, high-voltage and medium-voltage switchgear, FACTS solutions and battery energy storage across the country. Jason was born and raised in Pittsburgh. He joined HICO in 2001 and became president of the Memphis transformer manufacturing operation in October 2022. He still leads the business side of HICO from the company’s office in Pittsburgh, so he splits his time between there and Memphis. “I spend significant time in Memphis and have grown to appreciate the area and the people from Memphis as well!” he said. “You notice the hospitality of Memphians right away, from the airport and even the rental car agencies to the hotels and restaurants. At every stage you are made to feel welcome. I am still learning about Memphis barbecue, sampling many of the restaurants and learning everyone’s favorite spots. And while I grew up as a showtime Lakers fan in the 1980s, I quickly changed my allegiance to the Grizzlies!” Before joining HICO, Jason worked in corporate engineering for the Bayer Corporation and as an M&A consultant for IBM. Early in his career at HICO, he worked in sales and marketing. “Like Bayer, IBM was a great experience,” said Jason. “I learned about the opportunity at HICO, the opportunity to join the launch of the North American arm of a successful global company in Hyosung Heavy Industries. I became one of its first employees in the U.S. It was very exciting to enter our company at that time.” Jason was a very good student. He earned his bachelor’s degree summa cum laude – the highest level of honor – in engineering physics from John Carroll University, specializing in electrical engineering through cross studies at Case Western Reserve University. He also earned a master’s in electrical engineering from Penn State University. HICO is a leader as a domestic producer of large power transformers, and Jason has been a key part of expanding HICO’s presence in North America. HICO has more than 400 employees in Memphis and more than 120 employees in Pittsburgh, in addition to employees across the U.S. and Canada. HICO is working to expand its capacity in Memphis and plans to manufacture other solutions the company offers. So why did a company with a world-class facility in South Korea choose to build a manufacturing facility in Memphis? “Many of us at HICO have been at our company a long time, and it was a key vision to establish a manufacturing operation in the U.S.,” said Jason. “For many years we imported equipment and solutions from South Korea. That is a world-class facility, but our partners in the U.S. wanted operations in America. In 2017 we decided to build a factory in the U.S., and a facility in Memphis became available. We acquired it on Valentine’s Day 2020. It was a milestone for our business in the U.S., truly a dream come true for all of us. “Memphis is a perfect location, central to our customers across the U.S. The rail and over-the-road access to transportation in Memphis is unmatched. But most of all we are blessed with the talented employees we have at our plant, the leaders and managers we have in Memphis, the quality of the work of our team and the products we produce day after day.” The company doesn’t just manufacture in Memphis – employees are also active supporters of the community. Hyosong HICO supports the St. Jude Memphis Marathon and Concord Academy. The company works with the Chamber to engage with schools, including hosting a Manufacturing Day at the plant earlier this month. They hire interns from colleges in Memphis and across the country. What excites Jason most about Memphis? “It’s a great location for our business, but most importantly, it is the people in Memphis. The quality of the education and the welcoming atmosphere in the community translate into our operation in Memphis. We have grown from 120 employees to more than 400 today, with plans to expand to more than 600 in the coming years. HICO is a great atmosphere to learn and work. We have a solid business model that gives all employees a voice to contribute to the direction of our company. We share together in our successes, and we face challenges together and overcome them. “It is also organizations like the Greater Memphis Chamber and the Chairman’s Circle in particular that give our company the opportunity to contribute to growth in Memphis. Our acquisition of the Memphis plant remains the single most important decision our company has made in the U.S. Our growth in Memphis is contributing to the success and expansion not only of our company, but also the industry overall.” Jason and his wife Melanie just celebrated their 25th anniversary. They have two children, Sarah and Samuel, who both attend the University of Dayton. Jason’s parents instilled a strong work ethic, and “the example of their relationship influenced my life in many ways. My father spent his entire career in the utility industry. When I entered college, I saw the utility industry as a little static, maybe not as exciting…. But I was wrong! My decision to join this industry in 2001 was the best decision I made. We have become the ‘cool industry.’ We are at the forefront of technology development.” Jason enjoys golf, vacationing near the ocean with his family and playing basketball and sand volleyball. Because of all the time spent watching with his kids, he can spout lots of quotes from the movie Cars. But his favorite movie is Shawshank Redemption, because he said it shows the importance of relationships and the ability to work together to overcome obstacles. Asked if he had anything else to add, he said, “We’ve been a proud member of the Chairman’s Circle since 2022. We look forward to more opportunities to support the Chamber and to engage with other companies in the area. We are especially proud to be here in Memphis!”

Outside the Office: Bill Seely

September 25, 2024 by Diamond Young

Bill Seely is the president of Varsity Spirit, the global leader in cheerleading, dance team and band apparel, camps, competitions and yearbook. This year he was named the first Corporate Champion of St. Jude Memphis Marathon Weekend. As Corporate Champion, Bill is encouraging other business leaders to support St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital by forming corporate teams to raise money and participate in the weekend’s marathon, half marathon, 10K, 5K or 2-Race Challenge. In addition to raising money for St. Jude, marathon weekend contributes to the local economy and generated $43 million for Memphis’s retail, transportation and hospitality industries in 2023. The St. Jude Memphis Marathon is the largest single-day fundraiser for St. Jude. This year’s marathon will be Dec. 7 and is expected to bring 22,000 runners and walkers to Memphis, along with thousands of volunteers and spectators from around the globe. This year’s goal is to raise $16 million during the marathon weekend. The St. Jude Memphis Marathon was named one of the top 30 races in the country by Running USA, the only ranked race that allows runners to raise money for a single charity. “It’s the most iconic event you can experience as a Memphian,” said Bill. “We put on a great show. We bring in 20,000-plus runners, plus lots of friends, family members and volunteers. They get to experience downtown. They get to experience Beale Street. They get to experience Memphis. Plus we get to save kids’ lives. That’s pretty amazing.” Now in its 23rd year, the event has raised more than $140 million and, in 2023 alone, engaged participants from all 50 states and more than 75 countries. We talked with Bill about why he invests his time outside the office to support this event: What is the project/organization you are involved with, and what is your role? This year, I have the honor of being named the first-ever Corporate Champion of St. Jude Memphis Marathon Weekend. As Corporate Champion, I will be engaging business leaders to become sponsors, start corporate fundraising teams, and bring in new donors to support St. Jude’s lifesaving mission. I will be encouraging fellow business leaders across the country, including our competitors, to create corporate fundraising teams leading up to race weekend. Why is this worthy of your time? As Corporate Champion for St. Jude Memphis Marathon Weekend, I am honored to lead the charge to raise funds and awareness for the kids and families at St. Jude. Supporting St. Jude has always been my passion, and I’m elated to expand our impact by uniting more business leaders behind this mission. What is the mission of the organization or project? St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, known for its pioneering research and treatments, aims to raise $16 million during the 2024 marathon weekend. What is your history with this organization? I have long supported St. Jude individually as a St. Jude Hero and through Varsity Brands programs such as Team Up for St. Jude and Spirited by Varsity. Why is this project or the work of this organization important to our community? In addition to raising funds for St. Jude, marathon weekend has generated millions for the Greater Memphis economy. What is your goal with this involvement? Since 2011, Varsity Brands has been all-in on supporting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital’s incredible mission of treating and defeating childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. Thanks to our collective efforts, we’ve raised more than $13 million (and counting!) to help ensure that families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food. Are you involved with other community organizations? What is your role with those organizations? In addition to my role as president of Varsity Spirit, I also founded Crosscheck Athletics, one of the largest nonprofit youth sports organizations in the greater Memphis area. I chair the board of the Leadership Empowerment Center in Frayser, sit on the board of Memphis Gridiron Ministries in Binghamton, serve on the board of governors for New Memphis and am in the process of launching a nonprofit specifically designed to drive youth engagement in Memphis.   If you’re interested in sharing the story about your community involvement outside the office in the Chairman’s Circle newsletter, email Lisa Lovell.
