A Note from Our President

My wife Chrissy and I are extremely excited to have joined the QE family. We are eager to help the company build on its strong tradition of market leadership, service, and innovation. For the past fifteen years, I have been working for and leading my family’s 123 year old media company, Times-Shamrock Communications, headquartered in Scranton, Pa. Prior to that, I practiced law in Scranton for almost 8 years. Chrissy and I live in Scranton and have five children, Abigail, Caroline, Cecelia, Matthew Jr., and Joseph.

The ownership transition brings a renewed focus on QE Manufacturing and their long-term growth. We are committed to investing in the future. We intend to make further strategic investments in areas such as:

People, processes, and equipment to strengthen our competitive position
Product innovation to drive the company’s growth
Quality and service initiatives to further solidify our leadership in these areas

I would like to thank Dale Miller and the entire Miller family and everyone associated with QE for having created companies that are well-respected in their community and their industries. I also look forward to continuing the legacy the Miller family has created.

Sincerely,
Matthew Haggerty
President, QE Manufacturing

Matthew was formerly CEO of Times-Shamrock Communications and Managing Director of Elk Lake Capital. He is a graduate of Villanova University and holds an Executive MBA from Villanova University and a Doctor of Law degree from The Catholic University of America’s Columbus School of Law.
