\"Alliance<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cLee has worn a lot of hats for us, and if we\u2019re being honest, he\u2019s probably been playing the role of CEO for several years now,\u201d said Alliance Group Chairman Jerry Stratton. \u201cThis thing has been in the long-term game plan for several years now, and it\u2019s really personally fulfilling to watch Lee assume a role he\u2019s been preparing for, literally, since the day he came on board 17 years ago.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since joining the company in 2003, Lee has played an integral role in the growth and development of Alliance Group, from a $8m production total in 2003 to a record $45m in 2019, which marked the eighth consecutive year of setting a new production record.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve come a long way, but we\u2019ve got even loftier goals,\u201d said Duncan. \u201cI\u2019m so proud ofour team and what we\u2019ve built together at Alliance Group, and this just represents the next chapter and the next challenge. I\u2019m excited to get to work and continue the tradition of excellence that John Craft and Jerry Stratton have stamped into the DNA of this company.\u201d<\/p>\n

Along with announcing the promotion of Duncan, Alliance Group also announced that company founder and long-time CEO John Craft will be retiring. Craft founded Alliance Group in 1998 and says he is looking forward to spending more time with family and pursuing his hobbies.<\/p>\n

\u201cJohn will always be a partner, a mentor, and a friend \u2013 his role in building this company from the ground up is what has made it possible for us to be where we are today,\u201d said Duncan. \u201cI\u2019m humbled and honored to take that torch from him and lead this company into what is a very bright and promising future\u201d.<\/p>\n
