| Eagle Alloy, Inc. was founded in 1979 by Mark Fazakerley
and Wayne Jarvis to meet the needs of customers looking for
a short-run steel and stainless steel foundry. Shortly thereafter,
John Workman joined to help grow the business. The three struck
a rare and very successful cord as they built Eagle Alloy
into a medium to high production steel foundry that aggressively
competes globally and is considered to be one of the finest
overall steel foundries in the country.
In 1991 they saw an opportunity to venture into the Investment
casting market and founded Eagle Precision Cast Parts, Inc.
Eagle Precision is also enjoying tremendous growth with sales
increasing an average of 10-25% year to year. Eagle Precision’s
versatility and responsiveness continue to appeal to those
looking for the finest investment castings in the shortest
period of time.
In 1999 it was decided that the demand by customers for completely
machined product was strong enough to invest in a full-service
machining facility. Thus Eagle CNC Technologies was born.
After merging this business unit with a well-established,
ultra-modern machining provider in 2007, ECT has played a
strong part in the growth of the Eagle Group by providing
the quality service and workmanship needed to develop a truly
satisfied customer base.
Wayne has since retired but stays active with metallurgical
projects.
Another opportunity arose in 2002 that allowed Mark and John
to purchase an existing aluminum foundry that had the ability
to build patterns. A new facility was built to house the permanent
mold portion of Eagle Aluminum Cast Products, Inc. The greensand
portion of the foundry is located in downtown Muskegon and
caters mainly to the automotive, paint-support industry.
All three foundries now exist at the same location and are
actually connected “under one roof”. Known as
The Eagle Group, together we are the largest private employer
in the greater Muskegon area and we welcome the opportunity
to show you around.
