Local Business Spotlight:

Golden Corridor LIVING’s Leaders in Business and Community

T

his month's business spotlight highlights Golden Corridor LIVING’s Leaders in Business and Community. We feature people who have helped Pinal County take its place as the heart of Arizona’s agricultural, industrial and cultural life.

People from throughout the county are making the lives of their neighbors more comfortable, more adventurous and more enjoyable through finding them new homes, new pets, new off-road vehicles and many more add-ons to their lifestyles.

These people and many others are taking our region in new and positive directions — including paths to leadership.

Ryan Wiles

Eddie Mankel

Manager, Iron City

Co-owner Mankel Mechanical Eddie Mankel says leaders aren’t born, they’re made.

He drove a tractor and truck at age 7 for Custom Farm Services; was a busboy/dishwasher at the Chatterbox Restaurant; and at 12 during the summer of 1974, Eddie started working summers for Vern Hancock learning the plumbing trade.

Growing up on a farm between Casa Grande and Maricopa, Ryan Wiles perfected a strong work ethic early in life. Moving off the farm and into his uncle’s company, Empire Glass, Wiles learned his initial business lessons replacing one windshield at a time.

Joining Arizona Production Machinery & Supply 15 years ago, Wiles took on the challenge of marketing Massey Ferguson compact and utility equipment with an enthusiastic understanding and ability.

With a new company spin off in 2010, he stepped into his leadership role for Iron City with the sales team in Polaris ATV and UTV sales. Following up his accomplishments in sales, Ryan was presented his biggest career challenge when he accepted the position of managing a new location for Iron City in his hometown of Casa Grande.

Eddie worked underground at Hecla Mine as an oiler, then for various plumbing companies in the Phoenix area, then was owner of a sprinkler installation business. In 1999 he started Mankel Mechanical, a plumbing company specializing in new residential, commercial and industrial plumbing.

When Eddie started, Mankel Mechanical, Manny Lopez extended credit to the business based only on a handshake; the two have been business partners for 22 years. Four years ago, the business was expanded to include Two Brothers Plumbing.

Eddie taught his two sons — Vaughn and Shea — how to be plumbers and now relies on them to get the jobs done.

Tanya Powers

CP/ACP, CLDP, CNSA, Founder/CEO, Glover Court Solutions & Estate Planning

State Farm Agent

Honeycutt Coffee and Wine Bar

Patricia Glover of Maricopa has helped individuals and businesses navigate complex legal matters for more than 15 years.

Early in her career as a legal professional, Patricia recognized a need for low-cost legal services. As a licensed legal document preparer, she is authorized to prepare legal documents without the supervision of attorneys. This licensure gives Patricia the ability to empower individuals to take an active lead in their legal matters while reducing costs.

Patricia spends most of her free time surrounded by friends and family, participating in community events and supporting small businesses. In 2020, she and husband Christian founded C.P. Glover Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving natural families, assisting families through temporary crisis situations, and reuniting families who have been separated via adoption.

In 2021, Glover successfully helped pass a bill into law that will allows certain Arizona-born adoptees access to their original birth certificates.

Vanessa McDill came with her family to Maricopa in 2005. When looking for a job, she responded to a listing at Lance Lane State Farm Insurance.

From receptionist to office manager to agent, Vanessa has worked for State Farm for 10 years.

Maricopa is “the right place to launch my business because I have established my community; the place where my children have roots; and my family has relationships that I wish to continue to cultivate both professionally and personally,” she says.

Her office will move to the new Sprout’s shopping center later this year. Vanessa says she is “excited to move into this new development that’s bringing new businesses to our community.”

Her goal as an agent is to “be the neighbor you can rely on.”

Vanessa enjoys being involved in the community and has donated to Blue Star Mothers, the Izzy Softball Tournament, The Boys and Girls Club, and donated senior portrait sessions to local graduates.

The owner of Honeycutt Coffee and Wine Bar has been hit with every kind of business challenge every start-up wants to avoid, namely major construction at the entrance of the shop followed by a global pandemic. Tanya has persevered from nearly being out of business to exploring expansion possibilities.

Honeycutt has now become “City Hall” away from City Hall, where business and city leaders meet up in a more casual setting. In the last year, Honeycutt was recognized as the Best Small Business by the Chamber of Commerce, Best Patio and Best Coffee Shop in Pinal County through Golden Corridor Living, and voted Creme De La Copa, Best Coffee Shop from the Maricopa Monitor.

Community minded, in August, Tanya gave free coffee all month to first responders as a “thank you.”

With the return of winter visitors, Powers is setting up weekly events.

Chris Cahall

Rich Vitiello

Insurance Agent, American Family Insurance Agency

General Manager, Kooline Plumbing; City of Maricopa Councilman Rich Vitiello says working for Kooline PlumbingHeating & Air is one of the best working experiences he has ever had.

New Jersey native Chris Cahall has been living in Maricopa with his wife Jocelyn and kids Elliott, Ethan and Emerson for the past 11 years. He opened his American Family Insurance Agency in 2011.

Careful to balance time between his Council, family and other duties, Vitiello also puts his money where his mouth is and is willing to gets in the trenches.

Overall, Kooline’s owners, Mohammed and Farzana Nazeem, have seen the business increase by 35%.

As an insurance agent, Chris provides policies for many local businesses and farms. The insurance agency also covers nonprofit organizations.

Chris recently has been active in Boy Scouts, the Maricopa Police Foundation and previously headed up the Maricopa Chamber of Commerce.

Whether that is helping with fundraising organization or just cooking hamburgers to raise money, whatever it takes to contribute, Chris says he is always willing to step up.

Kooline’s high profile projects include: the new Maricopa Animal Hospital, the Apex racing facility, and Exceptional Healthcare Hospital, Maricopa’s first hospital.
