We’re very pleased to announce that industry veteran Robin Doege has joined the RESCO team as vice president of its EUSCO division.

With over 30 years of combined operations and management experience within the electric utility sector, Robin brings a wealth of knowledge and enthusiasm to our EUSCO division.

Most recently, he served as the CEO of two rural electric cooperatives in Minnesota (Stearns Electric Association from 2018-2022 and Todd-Wadena Electric Cooperative from 2010-2018). Prior to these positions, Robin served as the metering manager, utility manager, and loss control manager from 1995 to 2005 at Connexus Energy, also located in Minnesota.

Robin will take the reins from Ed Kohmestscher, who will be retiring at the end of April. Ed successfully guided the division and provided leadership to the EUSCO team for almost 17 years. We thank him for his many years of service and contributions to the division, and we wish him the very best in his retirement.

With development of the site commencing last May, this latest video really showcases the fantastic pace of construction our builder Market & Johnson, Inc. and its team of contractors have maintained the past seven months.

Each passing week brings us one step closer to the completion of our new warehouse in Stanley, WI!

Once completed, the new facility will provide us with over 40,000 square feet of inventory space–along with outside fenced-in space–affording us ample room for storing our ever-growing inventory and enabling us to efficiently and quickly serve our members and customers in Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Michigan.

Based on the current pace of construction, we expect to begin moving in product in mid-December, with the facility being fully operational sometime in the first quarter of 2024.

We’re happy to share this new batch of photos—taken the week of Oct. 16—which shows the great progress our builder Market & Johnson and its crew of contractors are making.

 

Supply chain and inflationary challenges continue to be top-of-mind issues within our industry. RESCO President and CEO Matt Brandrup recently participated in a Q&A exchange with the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA) to share his insights on this timely topic and explain to readers how the RESCO cooperative model helps members and customers manage their product and material inventory more efficiently.

Here’s a glimpse into the progress of our expansion project at our warehouse in Moorhead, MN, which began in late May.
Scheduled for completion later this fall, the expansion will provide an additional 15,000 square feet of storage space, allowing us to house more material in a controlled environment, while at the same time improve overall operational productivity.
Once completed, the total storage space of the Moorhead warehouse will be almost 34,300 square feet.

We had another great week of progress at the site of our new warehouse in Stanley, WI, as crews from our builder Market & Johnson, Inc. and their team of contractors continued with their construction work both inside the building and around the perimeter.
