Picture this: You submit a home maintenance request, but instead of sending a crew, the owner shows up to do the repair.

At a typical biz, this is pretty unlikely.

But when you work with a 100% employee-owned company like Asheville’s own MB HAYNES, every visit is an owner visit. Because every employee, from secretary to CFO to electrician, is a stakeholder.

Here’s why this unique approach benefits everyone:

All owners want to see their company succeed

At MB HAYNES, employees have a vested interest in the company’s performance. When the company grows, their investment grows with it.

This leads to:

  1. Exceptional Service: With each employee committed to company success, there’s a greater focus on quality, customer satisfaction, and long-term relationships.
  2. Enhanced Company Culture: Employee ownership fosters a culture of pride, responsibility, and collaboration.
  3. Increased stability: Employee-owned companies tend to be more stable + see less turnover.

In short, everybody has a more positive experience (including you).
