Rancho Santa Margarita, California – Q-Mark, a North American manufacturer of probe styli, is celebrating reaching its 25th year in business. Among the industries served are aerospace, biomedical, defense, technology, and transportation. Company owner and CEO Mark Osterstock is especially proud to share the credit with his staff and family.
“My dad was a hard worker,” Osterstock remembers. “He was a fantastic role model for how to run a business and manage the many challenges that come with the responsibility.”
As is often the case, it has not been a straight line to stability and recognition as the premier supplier of a precision measurement tool so many industries demand. “We’ve gone through several deep economic crises since our launch in 1993,” Osterstock notes with a head shake. “I just kept focused on what our customers needed, even if there were fewer of them for a time.”
Being very involved in the manufacturing industry in California, Osterstock has been in leadership roles in the Los Angeles chapter of the National Tooling & Machining Association, recently serving as board president. “I’m certain that part of how our company has prospered throughout the years has been by teaming with other knowledgeable professionals I meet through NTMA.” Manufacturing processes and technologies are changing at a lightening pace. Q-Mark remains one of few firms worldwide with state-of-the-art capabilities.
