CD & Power: a Bay Area Top Woman-Owned Company

October 27, 2017 By Lisa Carter Leave a Comment

CD & Power Owners

CD & Power owners Donald Uischner, Jannett Uischner and Jill Collaro

 

You might expect to find a large number of women-owned businesses in the Bay Area. The San Francisco Business Times reports there are over 192,000 of them. What you might not expect to find is the Bay Area’s largest independent player in the industrial generator service industry among them. In the Business Times annual listing of the women-owned companies, CD & Power, Northern California’s largest, independent generator service company, muscled its way into the top 100 woman-owned businesses for the second year in a row.

Thirty years ago Chuck Uischner launched the company out of a single bay in Arnold Industrial Park in Martinez, California. Today, it continues to thrive as a family-owned business with Chuck’s daughter, Jill Collaro as President and his son, Don Uischner as Vice President.

Meet Jeff Zimmerman – Central Valley Generator Technician

October 5, 2017 By Lisa Carter 1 Comment

Jeff Zimmerman Central Valley Generator TechnicianMany of our clients like to get to know the people they talk with on the phone or who travel to their site to service their generators. We wanted to make that a little easier for our generator service customers in Central Valley California towns like Modesto, Stockton, and Fresno. Meet Jeff Zimmerman.

Jeff was born to work at CD & Power. Well, nearly. We pulled him into the “family” when he was still a teenager. Now, about a dozen years later, he is one of our most experienced generator technicians, working on generator brands like Kohler, Taylor and Cummins/Onan.    [Read more…]
