After 51 years, Salvador Ruvalcaba retires as a part-owner of R&K Industrial.
Salvador Ruvalcaba retired this year after 51 years of service at R & K Industrial Products. This manufacturing company, located in Richmond, makes industrial wheels for light-weight applications such as hand trucks and carts, to much heavier and demanding applications and accessories. The company has been employee-owned since 1977.
First hired in November 1969, Salvador worked in the Machine Shop. He has also been a steward in several negotiations. “Local 315 wishes Salvador a long, happy, and well-deserved retirement,” said Secretary-Treasurer Don E. Garcia.
