Robert J. Sarna, President and CEO of Pride Machinery, Inc. provides
the overall direction and inspiration for all industrial networking,
management coordination and financial organization for Pride.
Sarna has a history of building successful companies from the
ground up for employers as well as for himself. With over 35 years
experience in screw machine technology and rebuilding, he has
structured the foundation of Pride Machinery. Mr. Sarna has gained
invaluable experience dealing with top management of many Fortune
500 companies as well as working with National Acme as an Assembler,
Service Engineer, Service Manager and Supervisor in Top Management.
In 1981, Sarna formed Pride Machinery, Inc. Pride, a high-tech
rebuilding firm specializing in Acme Gridley's and CNC retrofit
has dealt with such major corporations as Schlage Lock, Primex
(formerly Aerojet-General), Honeywell, Fairchild and Brass Craft,
Huck Fastener, New Hampshire Ball Bearing and Cerro Brass.
In late 1990 under Sarna's Leadership, Pride's sales organization
was restructured to aggressively pursue the rights to represent
the best and most sought after screw machine replacement parts
and tooling in the industry. This has resulted in record sales
on the West Coast as well as emergency sales to the later time
zones to the East giving our vendors an extra 3 hour sales window.
