Meet The Team

Beth Jarvis
Founder, President / CEO

How long have you worked at Jendco: Since 1988

What's one thing you love about your job: Things that I like about my job? The answer to this question has evolved over the years. I used to thrive on the challenge, the excitement of the sale or ruminates about the deal that fell through. Today I marvel at the organization that Jendco has become. The growth of the company, the genuine spirit of cooperation and shared goals among our employees. I love seeing Jenny and David, my children every day and knowing that they are the present and the future of Jendco Safety.

What’s a fun fact about you many people may not know: I was the first woman pizza delivery driver during my OU days in Athens, Ohio. I delivered for Little Caesar’s Pizza.

Jenny Jarvis
Vice President

Jenny Jarvis started with Jendco in 2004. She began temporarily working in the warehouse after college and soon found out that she was a great fit at the family business. Within a few months Jenny began to take a more active role in both sales and administration. During this time Jenny honed her skills as a salesperson – while working with some of Jendco’s oldest clients. Being a second-generation visionary, Jenny quickly mirrored the valiant efforts of her mother – Beth Jarvis – Jendco’s founder. Currently Jenny participates in local peer groups and committees through the Columbus Builders Exchange, and The Conway business Center. She also participates in a peer group with other EOS Visionaries located throughout the Midwest. She is an active participant in the company's EOS initiatives.

What's one thing you love about your job: All the people I get to work with on a daily basis, from our growing team to our amazing client base. I absolutely LOVE going on client visits and getting to see how they all use the products they purchase from us. Jendco has really evolved as a company over the last several years and I’m excited to see what the future will bring.

What’s a fun fact about you many people may not know: I LOVE retro, antique barn finds. So much so that I created a hobby around it. Since 2013 I have rented a space in an antique mall to resell the hidden treasures I acquired from demolition job sites, old factories, or auctions.
