Fifty years later, with the sale of the business to our employees, W.M. Barr has become the model of a successful ESOP company. Through the talent, vision and hard work of our employee owners, we have continued to introduce innovative new products, acquire new businesses and brands, and achieve exceptional growth and profitability. And we've only just begun. Our people: As both employees and owners, we all share the same passion, aspirations and goals. All of our people are both accountable and empowered. We're more motivated as individuals and we work as a team.
