Rayser Holdings: Building a Legacy of Employee Ownership Sponsored by Rayser Holdings As we celebrate National Employee Ownership Month, Rayser Holdings takes a moment to reflect on its journey and celebrates alongside its ESOP friends and partners in the Corridor. As an Iowa-based, employee-owned holding company, Rayser Holdings strives to create more value through its culture and core values. Founded in 1971 as a healthcare company that became CarePro Health Services, the organization started as a modest venture with a vision to help others. From the outset, the founder, Ray Buser, believed that when employees are given a stake in the company, they become more than just workers; they become partners in the pursuit of excellence. That is why, in 2004, at Ray's behest, the company underwent a transformative shift, becoming 100% employee-owned. This pivotal moment marked a commitment to a more inclusive and equitable business model. ENGER With every team member becoming a shareholder, Rayser Holdings' success was no longer just about the bottom line; it became about the collective achievement of its dedicated workforce. In 2018, inspired by Ray's entrepreneurial spirit, the leadership formed Rayser Holdings. With a mission toward diversification, they were determined to secure the future of the ESOP for the benefit of all employee owners and bring even more into the fold. Their experience spans much more today than the healthcare subsidiaries that started it all. But that commitment to employees, customers, and the community continues to drive the Rayser team. Rayser Holdings' portfolio includes CarePro Health Services, KELTEK Incorporated, Des Moines Winterset Memorials, and J-TEC Associates. Employee ownership at Rayser Holdings isn't just a concept; it's a way of life. The culture nurtures innovation, as every employee has a stake in the company's future. This unique perspective has led to new ideas, fostering growth and adaptability in a rapidly changing business landscape. As we celebrate National Employee Ownership Month, let us also celebrate the remarkable journey of companies like Rayser Holdings, where the future is owned by those who help create it.
