Dave Paknik
General Manager - Wetzel & SonsDave began his career with Wetzel & Sons in 1992 and over the years has helped create the company’s current business model that it is. He started as a mover and then quickly took on the challenge of becoming a packer in the field. As he became a lead packer, he and his crews were responsible for evaluating the needs of each item packed to ensure the proper protection and materials were used for safe transportation and/or storage. Dave then pursued estimating for the company and in later years moved on to become the Operation’s Manager. Most recently he has taken on the position of General Manager and regardless of what position he holds, he has always taken pride in working for a company that has earned a reputation of the highest standards and integrity.
