PES Design Group

1989 - After a brief internship with PE Systems, Inc during the summer of 1989 I was hired by Illinois Range Company (Mt. Prospect, IL) based solely on the quality of my hand-drawn portfolio and confidence that I could do the job well. Suddenly, I was thrust into the challenging world of McDonald's Corp foodservice design, Micro-Cadam and custom stainless steel equipment design and fabrication. A first chapter in the 30 year adventure that has been my career in Foodservice. - Jim Richards, Jr
