CFO George Cook was named vice chairman.

“I’m honored to be the fourth generation of the MacLean family to own and operate MacLean-Fogg,” said Duncan MacLean. “I’ve had the privilege of working in seven of our different facilities, and living in Germany for nearly 5 years. I’m committed to making my vision of unifying our company globally by driving ‘One MacLean-Fogg.’ I will continue to support and build our Operational Transformation culture through LEAN implementation, and invest in new products, equipment, and acquisitions.”

Duncan MacLean joined the company in 1996 as a manufacturing engineer for MacLean Power Systems. He was elected to the MacLean-Fogg board of directors in 1998. In 2008, Duncan MacLean became president of MacLean-Fogg Component Solutions. In 2015, Duncan became President of MacLean-Fogg and assumed direct responsibility for MacLean Power Systems.

MacLean, Jr., stepped in and I ultimately became President and CEO in 1972. It’s a thrill to see fourth generation Duncan MacLean leading the company.”
