POHL METAL PRODUCTS

Pohl Metal Products Inc. was founded in 1950 by Archie Pohl; a graduate of Iowa State College and General Motors School of Technology. He and his wife Olive moved from Flint Michigan in 1948 looking to begin their own company. In 1950, Pohl Metal Products was born and Archie began to design and fabricate his line of irrigation distributing gates and slide gates, as well as turkey feeders for local turkey farms through out Californias central valley... Esteves will always be Diane's son and became Pohl's stepson when widower Pohl married Diane in 2005. And recently, Esteves took over as the new owner of Pohl Metal Products in Oakdale, a business founded in 1950 by Bill Pohl's dad, Archie Pohl. Bill bought out his dad in 1972. A unique chain of events means the business will remain in the family, with Bill Pohl now easing into retirement at 71... When Bill Pohl introduces his wife, Diane, as "my little brother's mother," he gets the desired bewildered look from his listeners.
