Commenting on his appointment, Blake said “I’m excited to be part of Fullerton’s rapid growth and nationwide expansion, and I’m really looking forward to working with the great workforce the company has here in its Worthington manufacturing facility.” Fullerton’s panelized construction systems are marketed to fast food franchising organizations, leading multi-unit franchisees, and apartment and office developers across the country, and have grown significantly in popularity due to the speed and savings in labor costs they offer in delivering a new building.

Blake joins Fullerton from the Highland Manufacturing division of Champion Homes, also based in Worthington, where he headed operations for the past two years.

He previously was employed for more than a dozen years at Champion’s manufacturing facility in Topeka, Indiana. Prior to joining that firm in 2003, he worked as a golf professional and course manager.
