The Jung Companies have been owned and operated by the Jung family since 1977. Bruce and Jon grew up working with their parents in the business and went on to raise their own children around the shop and office. The third generation of the Jung family is currently involved in the company as they prepare to carry on the family tradition.
The Jung Management team takes pride in the family-oriented culture and considers the employees, many of whom have been with Jung Companies for 10+ years, to be members of the family.
