Amos B. Martin, a Mennonite farmer from Lancaster County, PA, started selling metal panels in 1947. He had few resources, but his strong work ethic, frugal nature, and care for others were all the resources necessary. There were no aspirations of building a big business. He worked as a carpenter and built range shelters for free-range chickens. Since Amos used metal panels for the chicken shelters, neighbors soon began buying panels from him, and “Amos B. Martin Roofing” was born. Written for the 75th Anniversary of the company, interested readers will find many never-before-published stories, and will glean insights into the factors that led to AB Martin’s success. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\" color=\"#000000\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\" face=\"Times New Roman, serif\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\" size=\"3\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: normal;\"\u003eMore Than Roofing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\" color=\"#000000\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\" face=\"Times New Roman, serif\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\" size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-style: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: normal;\"\u003e introduces readers to the fascinating owners and employees behind AB Martin’s legacy of service.
