Ted Goodnow founded Woodmeister in 1980 with a passion for millwork and a vision for a company that fosters excellence in every aspect of the workplace. Under his leadership, that vision became a reality as the small business he started in a room in Worcester grew into a world-renowned, multi-million dollar construction company known for its exceptional residential projects. Ted led the company for over 40 years until he passed away in 2024 after a courageous battle with cancer. He was an active member of the World Presidents Organization and was a founder of one of the New England Chapters. Ted was widely regarded as a true leader and was committed to mentoring new employees, developing new business opportunities, and woodworking in his home shop throughout his life.
