Did you hear about the banker who crafted an American-made solution to keep up with industry demand?

Erik Benik’s metal fabrication company creates a wide range of cutting-edge materials. But as the demand for American-made steel grew, he required more capital to fulfill customer needs. After conducting a deep review of his finances, Tri Counties Bank Business Relationship Manager Sonny Ventimiglio and team came up with a laser-focused solution. They refinanced Erik’s current equipment leases, improving his cash flow by thousands. They also added a new equipment loan and business line of credit to finance two new laser machines in order to keep up with growing customer demand. Now that’s an American-made solution. For personalized problem solving, switch to Tri Counties Bank.

Located on Buttonwillow Avenue, just south of Dinuba Avenue, the 12,000 square foot manufacturing plant will also have a retail showroom in the front of the building. Jeff Davis, founder of Turbo Spas LLC, has spent most of his life in the industry, first working for his father, who was one of the first Northern Cali- fornia hot tub/ spa retailers. In 1991 Davis opened up his own company, Turbo Spas Retail, in Dublin, Calfornia, and after nearly 20 years of steady business, the company got into manufacturing in early 2012 and Turbo Spas LLC was born and headquartered in Adelanto. “It used to be that it was pretty sea- sonal, but over the past couple of years it seems like year round is busy,” said Sandy Davis, an officer, secretary and treasurer of Turbo Spas LLC, and wife of Jeff Davis. “We are pretty consistent- ly busy.” Turbo Spas moved because of chang- es to the zoning of an area that it pur- PHOTO VIA TURBO SPAS | Turbo Spas manufacturers its “Sedona” model, which includes 46 jets as well as an “elegant light show,” according to the company’s Facebook page. chased.

Kaiser awarded a grant of $150,000 to WestCare California, Inc., which will provide funding for the initial operations of Street2Home. WestCare is also working in partnership with the city and county of Fresno, the Fresno Housing Authority, Fresno First Steps Home and Fresno Madera Continuum of Care. “This is really the seed money we need to get the initiative off the ground and begin the work of transitioning the homeless in our county to transitional and permanent housing, while connecting them with the services they need to be successful,” Shawn Jenkins, senior vice president of WestCare California said of the grant. This money will be used to help Street2Home in setting up a governance structure and support This grant is part of a $200 million Thriving Communities Fund, which Kaiser Permanente announced last year to improve community health by addressing housing stability and homelessness, among other community needs. Fresno Mayor Lee Brand first announced the Street2Home initiative during his State of the City address last June. Still in the planning stages, the goal is to reduce homelessness in Fresno County by 50 percent by next year. Over the past ten years, chronic homelessness in Fresno County has been reduced by 38 percent. However, there were still 1,834 homeless people in Fresno County in 2018, Fresno firm attorneys to join according to a Street2Home report.

Immigration | from 1 with security tightened along the U.S.-Mexico border and threats by current President Donald Trump to crack down on undocumented immigrants, combined with the growing threat of being robbed and pos- sibly killed by so-called “coyotes” illegally smuggling immigrants into the U.S., there are fewer people coming here willing to work hard, often low-wage jobs in the agricultural industry. But most every farmer here, whether they’re from California or other parts of the country, likely would agree that a big part of the problem is that federal lawmakers have dropped the ball in revamping this country’s immigration laws, particularly those affecting migrant farm la- borers. Some California lawmakers are looking to change that — at least as far as making changes to help the ag industry. In January, U.S. Reps. Jimmy Panetta, D-Salinas, and Susan Ellen “Zoe” Lofgren, D-San Jose, along with California Sen. Di- anne Feinstein, introduced in their respective branches the Agricultural Worker Program Act to shield undocumented farmworkers already here from deportation and put them on paths toward becoming citi- zens. Under the act, laborers who have worked in agriculture for PHOTO BY DAVID CASTELLON | Carlos Gonzalez, a former undocumented immigrant now a legal resident and manager of two farms, walks around last week’s World Ag Expo. at least 100 days in the prior two years may earn “blue card status,” allowing them to con- tem sucks.

SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT/AREA MANAGER KAISER PERMANENTE FRESNO

What are some of the areas of care at Kaiser that you hope to expand upon?

Our patients and members have the support of an entire team of care providers who work together. Technology has made it possible for us to deliver care with a focus on ease and convenience, whether it be through a phone or video appointment with a doctor or ordering prescriptions and viewing lab results online. Kaiser Permanente is committed to saving lives by providing innovative ways to treat illness, prevent disease and keep people healthy.

How has Kaiser’s philanthropy impacted the Central Valley?

Kaiser Permanente’s mission and non-profit status allows us to address the health, social and economic needs of non-members in the community. In 2018, we invested $3.6 million in the Fresno area. Like all hospitals, we conduct a Community Health Needs Assessment to provide a robust community benefit program that addresses access to care, healthy eating and active living, mental health, hunger and homelessness and chronic disease prevention. As one of the leading health care organizations in the Valley, we recognize care delivery must go beyond our hospital doors and touch the underserved in our community. We are committed to giving our time, expertise and resources to support programs that create healthy communities.

Who are some of the people in the community that you hope to increase outreach to? Is there anyone that you feel is currently underserved? EDUCATION: B.S. in health policy & administration from Penn To us, total health means affordable, equitable access to health care. That extends to State University, master’s in business administration from the our schools, work sites, parks, farms, small towns and larger cities in our community. We invest in a broad range of strategies to improve the health and well-being of University of Pittsburgh. our diverse communities in the Valley. We pair our community investments with our medical expertise to increase access to high-quality care and provide safe, healthy AGE: 52 communities. We work in partnership with several Federally Qualified Health Clinics to ensure access to care is available to the underserved. FAMILY: Married to wife Carolyn

What have you learned from working at Kaiser for 25 years? WHAT WE DO: Kaiser Permanente has been a pioneer in health care delivery since the 1940s and is the nation’s largest non-profit health I am proud that our organization is focused on providing high-quality affordable health system. Through our integrated model of care, and in partnership care to our members and the communities we serve. Our mission drives our actions and we are focused on helping our members and patients lead healthy and productive with our Permanente Medical Group physicians, we are focused lives. As a health care leader, I’ve learned that an organization that truly strives to on quality and prevention to improve the total health – mind, body achieve its mission inspires everyone to give their best each day they come to work. and spirit – of our members and patients. In California alone, Kaiser Permanente serves almost 9 million members. In the Fresno Service How has your experience in the US Navy prepared you for your current job? Area, we have a 169-bed medical center and four clinics providing more than 145,000 Valley residents with access to high-quality Serving in the Navy taught me how to be an effective manager by respecting the chain affordable health care services. of command. I learned the best leaders are those who listen to everyone regardless of their position or rank. I’ve tried to follow that philosophy throughout my career.

What are your roots in the Central Valley? What is the best piece of business advice you’ve ever received? I consider the Valley my California “home.” I was born and raised in Pennsylvania, but it was my tour of duty at the Lemoore Naval Air Station Hospital that brought me Good news is no news; bad news is good news; no news is bad news. It’s a tongue-twister to California. After completing my service, I started my Kaiser Permanente career as for sure, but it really means to create a culture in which you expect (and acknowledge) a financial analyst in Fresno in 1994, a few months before the hospital portion of the success, and in which people feel comfortable speaking up and asking for help. If you campus opened. The Valley holds deep meaning for me because it is the first place can build that culture, you will have a successful business. I lived in California and where I began my health care career. I am thrilled to return to where it all started and to see the health care landscape grow to meet the needs of Valley residents. What was your very first job and what did you learn from it?

I was a flagman on a road repair crew. I learned the importance of workplace safety. What do you like to do in your spare time? My job was about making sure I kept the rest of the team safe, so they could focus on their work. This translates into my job now as I strive to maintain a culture of safety in the I love traveling, outdoor activities, wine collecting and playing with our new Rhodesian workplace.

SPACE DEADLINE IS SOON APPROACHING

DISTRIBUTION POINTS The Business Journal - April 12 Manufacturing Summit - May 2 California Food Expo - Sept. 9 & 10

The Central Valley is the epicenter for California agriculture, and it became that way thanks to the innovative and entrepreneurial spirit of its pioneers. That spirit lives on today in the food processors and manufacturers whose products are used and enjoyed around the world. Made in the Central Valley seeks to highlight the “makers” among us, from startups to the well-established. The goods we produce tell a story about who we are, and Made in the Central Valley will give those stories a voice.
