Dow Jones Description

Momar, Incorporated was founded in 1947 as a manufacturer of specialty maintenance chemicals. Headquartered in Atlanta for over half a century, Momar has been recognized as one of the top 100 privately held companies in the city. One of the main reasons for Momar's success is that it remains committed to the sales and business philosophies of its late founder, Sam Mohr. Sam Mohr was a long time chemical salesperson in Atlanta, writing over $500,000 (the equivalent of several million dollars today) in maintenance chemical business in the year before he founded Momar. Then, on January 1st, 1947, when Momar became a reality, Sam Mohr approached every aspect of the business from a successful "salesperson's perspective." Having had a lot of experience with different management styles and practices, he saw that they often reflected the attitudes of the owners of the businesses. Now a business owner himself, Sam shaped his own philosophy of business around creating successful salespeople. His guidelines for Momar's management, faithfully protected and executed by his son, Julian Mohr, are still the foundation upon which all of our day-to-day decisions are made. Sam Mohr demanded that every decision to be made at Momar be made with the salesperson's best interest in mind first and foremost. The question becomes, what has that unique philosophy brought to Momar in the last fifty-five years in business?...
