– Dale Medical Products, Inc. (“Dale”), a well-known manufacturer of medical devices, is pleased to announce it has completed a transaction to become 100% employee-owned through its newly created Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP).
Dale’s founder, David Kaplan, repeatedly stated his desire to conduct his business and share the success of the company with all its hard-working employees. He did this by rewarding office and factory workers alike with competitive salaries, and hourly rates, good working conditions, and benefits including health insurance and a generous profit-sharing/retirement plan. Through the successive leadership under Irving Brezack and then John Brezack, this tradition has continued without interruption.
