When the history of the coronavirus epoch is written, The Watchdog hopes historians dont neglect to mention Prestige Ameritech and its owner, Mike Bowen. The North Richland Hills company is Americas No. 1 maker of hospital surgical masks.
During this crisis, youd think the company would be pushing forward on all cylinders, working 24/7 to manufacture the one commodity that Americans and the rest of the world want so badly.
Youd be wrong.
The company is only operating weekday shifts. You drive by nights and weekends and the employee parking lot is empty.
