Today, the company estimates it controls 1% of the world market for its products. Edward Jones has been with the company since 1984. Jones said he worked with his grandfather in the laboratory and cared for him “in his later years as his personal assistant.” William Hangsterfer died in 1983. Hangsterfer had one daughter, Ann, who was born in 1937, the same year the company was founded. She married Edward Jones, the father of the present COO. The older Edward Jones, whose duties at the company included being vice president of sales, died in 2008. Ann Jones is the company’s CEO. The executive offi ces at Hangster-
