Boak & Sons Celebrating 50 Years
AUSTINTOWN, Ohio – Boak & Sons has grown many times over the past 50 years. Sam Boak, president and founder of the company, started it in a garage with a pickup truck.
Later, it expanded to a location on Mahoning Avenue before moving to the current location on Victoria Road where the warehouse is the length of a football field.
As plans are being made to celebrate the milestone, Boak is talking about a succession plan so he can step away one day.
“As I slowly work my way out of here someday, I feel that I can walk out tomorrow and not be worried about it,” Boak says.
