David is one of 23 business leaders featured in Family Business Magazine who have run their companies with a steady hand, maintaining (and even increasing!) value for family shareholders and strengthening bonds with employees.

“My passion for our business comes from my grandparents’ influence,” Yochlowitz says. “My grandfather was a Jewish immigrant from Poland in 1911 and started the foundation of our company in 1912 with his dad. They put everything they had back into the company, always supported our community and helped many people. They instilled integrity, compassion and generosity into our family and business and lived humble, simple lives. I am passionate about making sure these values live on as we continue to grow the business and look to pass the torch to the fifth generation and beyond.” Family Business Magazine October 24, 2022
