Lapp Electric Turns 50 – Week 13 (Verizon, Bucket Trucks & Leadership)

Do you know the meaning behind the names of popular brands that you have come to know and love?

On March 22, 2019, Business Insider published an article entitled “These are the stores behind 24 of the most popular brand names.”

This article explores brands such as Pepsi, Panera, Google, Starbucks and so many more.

For Lapp Electric, the meaning behind our name is simple. Lapp is the last name of founder Manny Lapp as well as current owners, Greg and Tim Lapp (sons of Manny Lapp). Electric is what we do. We are an electrical contractor located in Lancaster PA. For more on how we got started, check out the About Us Section of our website. 

In honor of 2019 marking 50 years since Manny Lapp had a dream and vision to start Lapp Electric, each week via social media we are looking back at our history via social media as well as summarizing our social media posts on our Blog.

If you did not have a chance, be sure to check out last week’s post:
