Cleaning products maker and supplier Shurhold Industries is commemorating its 50th anniversary.
William E. Peach launched the company in 1973 with an interchangeable brush and handle that became the cornerstone of the company’s product line, the “one-handle-does-it-all” system. After growing the company for 25 years, Peach and his wife Mercy sold the company to current CEO Barry Berhoff, who expanded Shurhold into the RV and automotive markets.
“We’ve always felt that cleaning and maintaining a boat should be an easy and enjoyable process,” Berhoff, Shurhold CEO said in a statement. “Our greatest satisfaction is when we hear about a boatowner who has taken the time to share a tip with someone; it’s that organic ripple effect of passing on useful boat care information from one generation to the next and inspiring a sense of self-reliance in others that has guided the company’s direction for 50 years.”
