I love doing these customer spotlights! I get to learn more about our customers, and hear why they do what they do. Let’s be honest with out all these coaters, I wouldn’t have a job! Therefore I have more appreciation for them, than they know.
Anyways this month’s spotlight is on Johnson’s Powder Coating of West Berlin, New Jersey!! Chris Johnson is the owner and he has been in the powder coating industry since he was 17 years old, which means he has 28 years of experience (I will let you do the math ;) ) Chris started his career as a hobbyist in his parent’s garage, from there that is when everything just took off! He ended up moving his business to a small place at the South Jersey Airport. Year after year with no advertising just word of mouth, the business grew and he had to move again, but this time to a much larger facility.
In his years he has developed a great business ethic and reputation which provide him with many repeating customers and some sizable contracts. One company you might have heard of that Chris does work for, are the Orange County Choppers. Since Chris is their official powder coater, he has been feature on the Discovery channel, and on/in many magazines. A few more corporations that Chris has had the pleasure working with include Sony, Walmart, and NFL Films. Johnson’s Powder Coating also does work for the United State Navy & Coast Guard.
Chris might have some sizable contracts, but he is devoted to the companies and individuals who helped him get there! He takes a lot of pride (which we all should) in offering top quality service and a show quality finish at an affordable price. Which he also warranties his work J (I love a great warranty) Chris receives work from all over the county, but what makes him so great is that he doesn’t let it get to his head. Chris enjoys life and loves to help people!
On his personal time Chris enjoys building race cars, motor cross, drag racing and he loves to ride his Harley! Although he has all of these hobbies, he enjoys nothing more than powder coating! Chris Johnson is a family man who loves his job, and wishes everyone else loved theirs as much as he does!
Here are a few of my favorite pictures of Johnson’s Powder Coating work:
