Local businessman Golosky inducted into HOF

Local businessman and lifelong McMurrayite Doug Golosky has been inducted into the Alberta Business Hall of Fame.

“Doug Golosky is a quiet and softspoken man,” the Hall said in inducting him. “From humble beginnings as a welder with one truck travelling from job to job, he and his wife Carol emerged on the business scene to create a multi-million dollar group of companies that employs more than 1,000 people. The Goloskys’ companies provide a wide variety of industrial products and services to various clients, such as Syncrude and Suncor, involved in the oil and gas industry, oil sands, the pulp and paper industry, as well as construction.”

Golosky was nominated by former Syncrude President and COO Jim Carter.

The induction took place last night in Edmonton; Golosky was one of two new inductees this year.
