For 25 years, Lloyd ran Smucker Company - a family-owned business that he grew from a small, four person company into an industry leader employing 145 local residents. As a businessman, Lloyd proved his ability to serve and lead people, create jobs, overcome obstacles, make tough decisions, meet a budget and much more. Since selling his interest in Smucker Company to his brother in 2006, Lloyd has worked as a business consultant helping a start-up company bring alternative energy technologies to the marketplace.

He is the Chairman of the Lampeter-Strasburg YMCA Building Capital Committee, the former spokesperson for the Willow Street Community Group and a former Council President at his church, where he continues to be active today.
