When you walk into Ledwell Machinery, the first person you are likely to see is Casey Hanes, and he is almost always ready with a friendly smile. Casey started at Ledwell in 2019, working in the Brake & Shear department, and moved into his current role as Parts Sales at Ledwell Machinery in 2022. Since then, he has become a familiar face for customers and coworkers alike.
Casey’s day is semi-typical but always busy. He opens the store each morning, checks service and parts tickets, and notifies customers with updates. He keeps track of inventory and restocks parts as needed to keep things running smoothly. Throughout the day, Casey helps customers who call or stop by looking for outdoor equipment parts or new equipment, making sure they get what they need as efficiently as possible.
What Casey enjoys most about working at Ledwell Machinery is the atmosphere. He appreciates the family feel that extends across the entire Ledwell organization and says it makes him feel appreciated and valued. That sense of pride shows in how he treats customers and in his approach to his work each day.
One accomplishment Casey is especially proud of is helping with the store’s remodeling. “I feel it welcomes customers with products they didn’t know we offered,” he said. The updated space has helped showcase more of what Ledwell Machinery can provide and has improved the overall customer experience.
The most valuable lesson Casey has learned is that hard work pays off. He believes doing things the right way will take you far, a mindset that fits well with Ledwell’s commitment to quality and long-term relationships.
Outside of work, Casey keeps busy with family and hobbies. He enjoys spending time with his wife, Stephanie, and his daughter, Veda. When he gets a little downtime, you can usually find him playing a round of golf or picking up his guitar.
Casey’s positive attitude and strong work ethic make a lasting impression, and we are proud to have him on the Ledwell team.
