There’s an old saying that professes, “You only get one chance to make a good first impression.”

It’s clear that Consolidated Precision Products of Eastlake takes that advice to heart.

CPP, which manufactures products such as turbine blades, shrouds and vanes for the aircraft/aerospace and power generation markets, received its first-ever Lake-Geauga Fast Track 50 award on Nov. 7.

And with that award, Consolidated Precision Products was named as the Fast Track 50’s No. 1 Established Company for 2018. Last year’s top Established Company, JEMM Construction Co. of Painesville Township, moved over to the 2018 Emerging Company list, where it finished No. 3.

CPP’s impressive debut was part of the 2018 Lake-Geauga Fast Track 50 dinner and awards program held at Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites LaMalfa in Mentor.
