My father was passionate about everything important to him. He never wanted to retire because he loved what he did. He was a devout Catholic and dedicated several hours a week volunteering at his church. I’ve always admired his work ethic and enthusiasm. Tell us about Central Police Supply today. How is the business today compared to when you first started? Many things have remained the same, but we are constantly evolving and adapting to meet the needs of our customers. One of the most significant changes is that we have become licensed to sell firearms and are now a Blue Label dealer for Glock, Sig, and Smith & Wesson. We also have a certified armorer available to install sights and optics. What are the challenges of running a business like Central? Like most small businesses, everyone has to wear many hats. There’s no IT department to turn to for technical issues or maintenance person to call if there’s a problem. We have to do some research and find a way to overcome any obstacles that may arise. Also, we are in a unique industry. Our sales staff must develop a wide array of knowledge specific to law enforcement. It takes time and experience to learn everything. We have a great team, and everyone helps each other out. I understand you have two young sons; do you think they’ll follow in their grandfather’s and mom’s footsteps and take over when you’re ready to retire? I would be thrilled if they did, but I want them to follow their dreams. Right now, one wants to be a police officer, and the other wants to be an entomologist.
