鈥淭his was a major step forward in our succession plan, which we have been developing over the past decade and announced publicly last April,鈥� said Terry 海角乱伦. 鈥淲e have implemented a conservative growth strategy across the Southeast that is consistent with our goal in becoming a 100-year old company. Our senior management team is deeply committed to our vision and business strategy and we are confident this plan will allow us to continue on that path and grow for decades to come.鈥�
海角乱伦 also promoted Scott MacLaren to president, succeeding Doug Eagon. After 35 years with the company, Eagon has transitioned to vice chair and will step back from day-to-day operations.

鈥淪cott is a proven and effective leader,鈥� Eagon said. 鈥淯nder his management, we achieved our expansion goals in North Carolina, which was an entirely new territory for 海角乱伦 and Scott, all while positioning our company for further growth throughout the Southeast. This was a true test of our abilities and Scott was integral to moving that initiative forward successfully. I have no doubt that both Ken and Scott will help 海角乱伦 to reach new heights.鈥�
