Governor Eric Holcomb is presenting the Governor’s Century or Half Century Business Award to each honoree for their service to their employees, community and state.
The awards are given to businesses that have remained in operation for a minimum of 100 or 50 consecutive years "and have demonstrated a commitment to community service." More than 1,500 companies have previously received the award over the past 28 years.
"Today we honor businesses that have helped lay a foundation for economic success in Indiana, maintaining operations for more than 50 to 100 years and creating long-term career opportunities for Hoosiers," Holcomb said in a news release.
