MILFORD — Chore-Time announces the milestone of Earl Barrentine’s 50th work anniversary.

Barrentine joined Chore-Time, 410 N. Higbee St., in June 1974 and became a cornerstone of its team. He currently serves as the company’s North America layer specialist and previously held positions of regional sales manager and product development engineer.

“We are incredibly proud to celebrate Earl’s half-century of service,” Tina Streit, vice president and general manager at Chore-Time. “Earl’s dedication, expertise, and positive attitude have been instrumental in our success, and we are deeply grateful for his contributions over the years.”

Barrentine was instrumental in developing our first egg collector and has established the layer business from both the engineering and sales side, all while mentoring employees and consistently upholding high standards.

“Earl’s wisdom and knowledge continue to lead us, most recently into the cage-free market. His personality never fails to encourage and build confidence in co-workers and customers,” Kevin Alger, North America sales manager, said.
