Mike Kruger has been doing glass work for 52 years. After serving in the Air Force Mike came back to his hometown and went to work for Worthington Glass in the early 70's. In 1982, with high interest rates and a poor economy he took a risk and opened Adrian Glass in Adrian, MN and he has never looked back. Mike enjoys the variation in glass work from windshields, door, home windows and doing artistic etching on glass. Mike says there is a need for people in his industry and he really enjoys what he does. Mike's youngest son followed his dad's footsteps and opened a glass shop in Storm Lake, IA. Mike worked with Fullerton Building Systems to supply glass doors for area Dairy Queens and Arby's. Mike told the young professionals you may be opening a door that was made in Adrian, MN. Mike has no plans to retire but does take some time off to go on Corvette trips with his wife. Thank you, Mike, for hosting the SWMN CEO young professionals.
